Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This visit really helped me significantly to get a better impression about how Romania was to live in the last century (and a bit more). Not so different from western Europe, but maybe later to change to modern times. Nice exposition to "experience" life 50-125 years ago.

Located in the center of Cluj it's a nice place to visit. It's a place where you can learn more about local culture and also about old trades. They have some interesting temporary exhibitions as well.

The museum itself os very beautiful and charming, but some of the employmee have an unacceptable behaviour towards the tourists. Because I misunderstand the closing time, one employee came to me and started to scream and swear at me for not leaving the museum in time. He verbally aggressed me and told me words I don't want to repeat for not leaving the place in time, regardless the fact that I apologise for that. Also, in one of the gardens I saw a dead animal that they probably forgot to remove.

I hope the manager will do something about this unacceptable and disrespectful behaviour of your employee.

The selection of tools and ustensils is good, but the lack of information regarding the exact use of them makes the visit a bit difficult since one cannot know the purpose and the name of the items (they are not individually numbered in order to identify them from the list provided). No museum album, as usual.

Probably would need to get here by car from Cluj.
An outside museum of a range of historic mainly rural buildings including several beautifully carved wooden churches, one with painted interior frescoes on wood.
All the more enjoyable on a beautiful autumn day.

Interestingly the site was being prepared to stage an obstacle/strength competition.
Which I'm sure some would disagree with. But actually I can imagine would be a lovely day out and would be lovely to see people on the site.

Centrally-located in Cluj, this museum is open Wednesdays to Sundays. It’s up on the second floor and is well organized in areas of crafts and work activities. I particularly liked the final exhibit of the traditional clothes from specific valleys and villages, showing quite a variety. While we were there, a LEGO’s special exhibit was being shown. Note that there is a great gift shop on the first floor but you might have to ask to have it opened. In this gift shop are some handmade clothes from a hundred years ago. Could be a perfect gift! I bought a mohair scarf which I truly treasure. Also note that the Tourist Information Bureau is downstairs.

To visit The Transilvania Museum of Etnografico is a real pleasure. Here you can travel in past and see how Romanian people lived 100 yers ago.

This museum isn't big and it is interesting if you are interested to see rural items, traditional clothes, etc. Otherside you can also skip it. I have to say that an area of the museum was under renovation, for sure it would be more completed with that.
entry costs 6 lei and you can't take pictures but if you pay 5 lei more you can take pictures.
