,
Kloiznburg
), commonly known as
Cluj
, is the second most populous city in
Romania
,
[5]
after the national capital
Bucharest
, and the seat of
Cluj County
in the northwestern part of the country. Geographically, it is roughly equidistant from Bucharest (324 kilometres (201 miles)),
Budapest
(351 km (218 mi)) and
Belgrade
(322 km (200 mi)). Located in the
Someșul Mic River
valley, the city is considered the unofficial capital to the
historical province
of
Transylvania
. Between 1790-1848 and 1861-1867, it was the official capital of the
Grand Principality of Transylvania
.
As of 2011, 324,576 inhabitants live within the city limits, marking a slight increase from the figure recorded at the 2002 census.

[6]
The
Cluj-Napoca metropolitan area
has a population of 411,379 people,
[3]
[7]
while the population of the
peri-urban
area (Romanian:
zona periurbană
) exceeds 420,000 residents.
[3]
[8]
The new metropolitan government of Cluj-Napoca became operational in December 2008.
[9]
According to a 2007 estimate provided by the County Population Register Service, the city hosts a visible population of students and other non-residents—an average of over 20,000 people each year during 2004–2007.
[10]
The city spreads out from
St. Michael's Church
in
Unirii Square
, built in the 14th century and named after
the Archangel Michael
, the
patron saint
of Cluj-Napoca.
[11]
The boundaries of the municipality contain an area of 179.52 square kilometres (69.31 sq mi). An analysis undertaken by the real estate agency Profesional Casa indicates that, because of infrastructure development,
communes
such as Feleacu, Vâlcele, Mărtinești, Jucu and Baciu will eventually become neighbourhoods of the city, thereby enlarging its area.
[12]
Cluj-Napoca experienced a decade of decline during the 1990s, its international reputation suffering from the policies of its mayor of the time,
Gheorghe Funar
.
[13]
Today, the city is one of the most important academic, cultural, industrial and business centres in Romania. Among other institutions, it hosts the country's largest university,
Babeș-Bolyai University
, with its famous
botanical garden
; nationally renowned cultural institutions; as well as the largest Romanian-owned commercial bank.
[14]
[15]
According to the American magazine
InformationWeek
, Cluj-Napoca is quickly becoming Romania's technopolis.
