“High Up on the Jina Mountain” Folk Festival

Jina is a thriving community of shepherds, perched at 1000 m altitude, above all other villages in the Mărginime, and spread over seven hills, just like Rome. Summer in Jina has a particular charm: in July the locals celebrate “High Up on the Jina Mountain” –  a folk festival which brings together the entire village and is reminiscent of the old days, when shepherds would descend from the mountains for the village feast day to celebrate, dance, sell and buy produce and dairy products, fall in love and get married.

Hvae a visit in Jina, enjoy the folk events, try the local gastronomy, meet the community and enjoy the beautiful mountain views!
