Visit the Memorial to the Victims of the Communism, the most visited museum in northern Romania, actually a former prison where 200 former dignitaries were imprisoned in the 1950s, with over 50 of them dying there.

Visit the Merry Cemetery of Sapanta, the only cemetery in the world whose epitaphs sometimes have a satirical-humorous tone, the one in Săpânţa, contains approximately 1000 wooden funerary monuments carved and painted in vivid colors, on which verses are engraved, a true chronicle of the village, describing both the qualities and the flaws of the villagers.

The last place for the day 1 is at Peri Monastery (2 km away from the Merry Cemetery), which has the tallest wooden church in the world: 75 meters high.

Overnight in Breb village.

Visit Bârsana Monastery, the most imposing in the northwestern part of Romania. The church, probably the most successful example of contemporary Romanian wooden religious architecture, dominates the amphitheater-shaped enclosure of the complex guarded by the most beautiful flowers in Maramureș.

Visit a wood carving workshop, where are created gates, furniture and even wood churches.

Later, on Iza Valley, meet a very skilled plant-dyed rug weaver (an UNESCO intangible heritage), see a salt water spring, visit a pottery workshop, and see a traditional old wooden house with dowry room, still inhabited today. Overnight in Breb.

In Breb, the most beautiful and best known Maramureș village, make a short walk and meet several local craftspeople and farmers.

On Cosău Valley, meet a lovely self-sufficient farmer family and see a medieval wooden church, virtually unknown.

Then, watch the unique water mills, whirlpool and alcohol distillery, still operating for community needs, and run by the same family for hundreds of years.

Before heading back to Cluj-Napoca, see an unique optical illusion near Budești.
