Why everything gravitates around Iulius Town

Iulius Town has become one of the landmarks of Timișoara: mall, office buildings, restaurants, and events, all in one area. For many visitors, it is both the shopping destination and the place for work meetings.

If your schedule revolves around this area, it makes sense to stay in the north of the city, in Torontalului — not Union Square and not Giroc. The daily commute is shorter, and in the evening you stay close to restaurants, cinema, and Iulius Gardens.

What you find at Iulius Town

Iulius Gardens is the park above the car park: paths, a lake, a carousel, and an ice rink in winter. Inside the complex there are a cinema, restaurants, and playgrounds. That is the walk in the north, not the historic centre.

The Banat Village Museum is in Pădurea Verde, in the north-east of the city. From Torontalului it is a drive, not a step outside the building. The sights in the centre are in Top 10 places to visit in Timișoara.

Escape for families, Romantic for two

Visaj Escape and Visaj Romantic & SPA share Mihail Halici 10, at the same distance from the station and the airport as Nova. Both have parking at the address.
