About the location

Transilvania Retreat Center is located in a sparsely populated wooded area about 900 meters (2700 ft.) altitude. Walking here without seeing anyone is the rule rather than the exception. But you do have a chance of passing stray cows and horses. From the Transilvania Retreat Center, there are numerous walks. Five kilometres away is the hamlet of Belis, where you can go for grocery shopping in two simple shops. Every Sunday morning there is a market with a wide range of fresh food and drinks by local farmers. At Belis is also a large reservoir, where with good weather it is a nice place to swim or rent a boat. The larger town Huedin, with as many as three supermarkets, is about 25 kilometer away. Here every Tuesday is a market where people come from across the region. Huedin is known for the Gypsy palaces with shiny roofs. It does remind you of India. The palaces have turrets, monumental staircases, Oriental roofs, pagodas, ostensive balcony pillars, concrete columns and elaborately carved gutters and downpipes. None of the homes is finished, but maybe that`s the intention. Cluj-Napoca, the best city in Europe you`ve never heard of, is the heart of Transylvania and is about 75 kilometer away. A vibrant student city with plenty of things to do. A short drive by car, there are numerous natural areas to visit, each different in nature. Within one to one and a half hours drive you are in the heart of the Apuseni national park, where you can go walking and horse riding. The park is known for its large number of caves, of which the most famous is the bear cave (Peștera Urșilor).
