Craiova Travel Guide
Romania
Craiova is a city of 304,142 people in southwestern Romania and an important urban centre in the region. It uses Romania’s national time zone, the same time zone as Bucharest.
Most air travellers arrive through Craiova Airport, which serves the city directly. Craiova is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better suited to city and regional sightseeing than to a beach holiday.
