In front of the St Nicholas Cathedral there's a memorial monument to local victims of the 1989 revolution. Nearby is a fabulous Greek Orthodox church . Northeast you'll discover the Azizie Mosque , which the charismatic, elderly gatekeeper will open upon request. As you stroll along the river, note the Independence Monument (1904) perched regally on Citadel Hill, at the far eastern end of town. You can reach it by following Str Gloriei to its end.
