Timisoara/social
How are we going to spend the evenings
Sunday our recommendation for Sunday evening is Curtea Berii (~Beer Courtyard). It's a nice pub where we can taste the beer produced by the local Timisoreana Brewery and enjoy Romanian cuisine. It is located on str.Proclamatia de la Timisoara, nr 7 close to the city center, only 15-20 minutes walk from Savoy/Perla hotels straight through the Timisoara city center.
Monday there is a reception at the university
Tuesday there will be a trip to the Recas vineyards in the evening. This will cost around €35 each
**** Please fill in the Social events form. It takes under 1 minute and helps us organise the event better.
Practical info about Timisoara & Romania
First time in Timisoara? Enjoy a short presentation video.
Currency: EURO is NOT accepted in cash transactions in regular shops, bars etc. We have our local currency Romanian New Leu (RON). For the official exchange rates consult Banca Nationala a Romaniei page. You can change EUR, GBP, USD at exchange offices that are scattered around the city, including city center. You may ask at hotel reception as well. Please note that exchange offices usually pay 1-2% less than the official rate, hence you will get 4.40-4.43 RON / EUR, or 5.90 - 6 RON / GBP. A beer in Curtea Berii costs around 6 RON :)
Most of the merchants (shops, bars, hotels etc) accept payment by credit/debit cards.
Transportation: Hotels you booked are closely located to workshop venue (West University of Timisoara) and to the city center, hence it's unlikely that you need public transportation. In case you do, the airport is operated by RATT bus line 4/4b with the following timetable: Airport -> Bastion, Bastion -> Airport. Bastion station is located here. The map of public transportation can be downloaded here.
Language: Romanian, but English is widely spoken, though native English speakers will find a funny local accent :)
Emergency number throughout Romania is 112.
