Turda, Municipality in Cluj County, Romania

The city sits at an elevation of 315 meters along the Aries River, surrounded by hills in the southeastern part of Cluj County.

During Roman times, the settlement named Potaissa served as the base for Legio V Macedonica from 166 to 274, developing into a major administrative center.

The Turda Diet of 1568 established principles of religious freedom, marking it as one of the first European declarations of religious tolerance.

Visitors can reach Turda through national roads connecting it to Cluj-Napoca, located 34 kilometers away, with regular bus and train services.

The former salt mine, Salina Turda, features underground chambers transformed into entertainment spaces with a ferris wheel and amphitheater.
