As a preamble to the UNITER Awards Gala, the organizers launch the campaign "Oradea – Impression. Artistic Variations". We invite everyone who loves Oradea or discovers Oradea to participate in the campaign and send photos to illustrate the beauty of this city and the entire region. Why the UNITER Gala in Oradea? The choice of this city is not accidental, considering that Oradea is a special city not only for its beauty. Oradea is a living city, a story that is always waiting to be discovered or rediscovered, Oradea breathes art and multiculturalism. You just have to open your eyes and soul, to discover its history and the beauties that are hidden at every step. We often compare this city to an open-air museum. Why? If you have visited Oradea at least once, you will know that every corner of the city hides architectural jewels and a wealth of details. Look around and you will see art and life! You will discover a city that breathes in harmony with modernity, while preserving its ancient values. Oradea Mare, Nagyvarad or Großwardein – multiple names for the same city in which multiculturalism becomes the soul of a community that demonstrates year after year that life is not just about routine impulses. The people of Oradea have learned that a life lived beautifully is one that first and foremost chooses the joy of the soul and mind. You just have to look and enjoy what surrounds you. We have art, we have shows, music, wonderful artists, we have magnificent buildings and people who know how to enjoy themselves. Whether you are a resident of Oradea or just a tourist, we invite you to show us through photos why you love this city. We want to discover through your eyes frames that tell us stories lived beautifully, joys and histories. In this sense, participants must send a maximum of three (3) suggestive photos, accompanied by a short description, during the April 8 – 25, 2016The ten best images will be selected and promoted on the website. www.uniter.ro and on the UNITER Facebook page, starting with April 26.
