Arad is a small town just North of Timisoara.
I was invited by the Zone Leaders to go with
them on a transfer here. Arad is a city of impressive buildings and architecture, with many of the main sights located along the principal thoroughfare, the broad, tree-lined, Bulevardul Revolutiei with trams running along it. These include the impressive white City Hall Palace (1875), the Palace of Culture (1911-1916) and the neo-classical State Theatre (1874). Arad is an important industrial center and transportation hub, as well as home to two universities, a Romanian Orthodox theological seminary, a training school for teachers, and a music conservatory. Churches and cathedrals in the city span over four centuries, and architectural styles ranging from baroque to neoclassic. My favorite kind of stuff!
