== The Host City ==
The Host city for this FSC #186-edition is Cluj-Napoca, Romania. A city in northwestern Romania, it is the second-most populous city in the country and the seat of Cluj County. Located in the Someșul Mic river valley, the city is considered the unofficial capital of the historical province of Transylvania and in the 1800s it was the official capital of the Grand Principality of Transylvania.
The city has a population of around 290.000, while the metropolitan area has a population of around 412.000. After a decline during the 1990s, today, the city is one of the most important academic, cultural, industrial and business centres in Romania. It hosts the country's largest university, Babeș-Bolyai University (40.000+ students), and the largest Romanian-owned commercial bank.
Cluj-Napoca’s architecture is primarily Renaissance, Baroque and Gothic. The nucleus of the old city, an important cultural and commercial centre, used to be a military camp, attested in documents with the name "Castrum Clus". The city is today becoming an IT/technology centre, besides its commercial importance with growing tourism, hotels, cafes, facilities, shops and hypermarkets.
Cluj-Napoca has a diverse and growing cultural scene, with cultural life exhibited in a number of fields, including the visual arts, performing arts, and nightlife. It also has a number of landmark buildings and monuments including the Saint Michael's Church in Unirii Square, built at the end of the 14th century. Another landmark of Cluj-Napoca is the 'Palace of Justice' (ca. 20.000 m2 in size).
