| Twenty kilometres west of Huedin, by road and rail, is the village
of CIUCEA (Csucsa). Midway along the route lies BOLOGA , whose ruined
fourteenth-century castle can be seen from the road and railway. There's
a small private hotel , the Romanta (tel 064/251 585; under $6) by the
highway, where you could break your journey and take a two-day hike from
Bologa to the Padis plateau. At the east end of Ciucea village is a
museum (Tues-Sun 10am-5pm) dedicated to the poet and politician Octavian
Goga . Goga bought the house of the Hungarian poet Endre Ady , who lived
in the village until 1917, and had a sixteenth-century wooden church
from Galpâia brought here in order to preserve it. Later still Goga's
own mausoleum was built in the grounds. In Ciucea, the Pension
Caprioarea on the main street (tel 064/259 059; $10-15) is good value. |
