Located in eastern Romania in the Moldavia province at the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains near the confluence of the Siret and Bistri'a and rivers, Bacau is a modern city with a rich past that dates back to the 4th century. Visit the impressive Magura Ocnei Monument, dedicated to the Romanian soldiers who died in the WWI, located on the Magura Hill. Learn about the local culture at the George Bacovia Memorial House. The beautiful 19th-century castle of the Stirbei’ family will give you a glimpse of the life of local nobility at that time. Catch a concert at the Rosetti Tescanu – George Enescu Cultural Center. The Saint Barbara Church is small but lovely and is located in a huge Trotus Salt Mine. Just outside Bacau is beautiful Slanic Gorge and Waterfall and the healing spa at the Slanic Moldova Mineral Springs.
