This family's experience:

Activities: We went to Valea Morilor Park, a large park with a lake and a playground. There's also a small amusement park. "A place that is also great for walking or boating," and we saw little stands selling popcorn, coffee, and cotton candy

Highlights: We enjoyed the playground and the "stairs, which are not easy to go down with the stroller, but they look nice." The kids loved the snacks available at the little stands. It is located about 20 minutes outside the center, so it was a nice getaway ✨
