About

Csíkpálfalva/Păuleni Ciuc is a picturesque village located on the eastern edge of the Central Ciuc Basin, just 5 km north of Miercurea Ciuc/Csíkszereda and near the famous pilgrimage site of Csíksomlyó. Situated at an altitude of 740 meters, it serves as the administrative center for two nearby villages: Csíkdelne and Csíkcsomortán.
The village has a rich tradition of local crafts, especially weaving. The famous Csík region wool rugs—colorful, patterned textiles influenced by Turkish designs—are still made here. Historically, local women also wove garments for the Franciscan monks of Csíksomlyó.
Traditional clothing was handmade from hemp, flax, and wool. Men and women wore homespun garments, with specific patterns and materials indicating social rank, especially in men's stockings and outerwear.
The area draws many visitors, particularly during the Pentecost pilgrimage to Csíksomlyó, a centuries-old religious tradition honoring the Virgin Mary. Local hosts offer various experiences such as horse-drawn carriage rides, visits to shepherd’s huts, folk dance nights, wildlife watching, and demonstrations of chimney cake baking and traditional rug weaving. Excellent accommodation is also available.
The people of Csíkpálfalva, Csomortán, and Delne warmly welcome all guests and visitors.

Founded in 2001, the Csik Chamber Orchestra is now one of the leading orchestras of the country. In July 2001, a chamber orchestra, founded by university students from the most prominent Universities of the country played its first concert in Miercurea-Ciuc, under the leadership of renowned pianist, conductor, and pedagogue, Zoltán Szőnyi. The concert was such a great success that soon it became a regular performer not only as part of citywide events but it created its own concert schedule and named itself “Csik Chamber Orchestra”. Since 2002, the orchestra has also met foreign invitations. Their recordings have been broadcasted several times on the MR1 Bartók Radio in Budapest and Radio Târgu-Mureş. Thanks to the financial support of different grants and organizations, the orchestra appear offen as a full symphonic orchestra, still keeping its name as Csik Chamber Orchestra, as a tribute to its origins. In the autumn of 2006 they invited to Budapest to the Music Academy of Liszt. Duna Television has made a documentary about the ensemble, which was released in the same year, entitled “The Music of Ciuc and Salzburg” – The concert of the Csik Chamber Orchestra at the Music Academy (Liszt Ferenc Music Academy, Budapest, Hungary). Since 2008, the orchestra performs more than 6 concerts a year, and supports, organizes and oversees many other classical music events in the area. One of them is the Early Music Festival from Miercurea Ciuc, which is now internationally renowned and in 2019 celebrated its 39th-year anniversary; the series of Autumn Piano Evenings, launched in 2017; BonBon Matiné lecture concert series dedicated for the youth and many more.

„Egy ókori mítosz szerint Zeusz állította fel az olimpiai játékokat, miután legyőzte Kronoszt. Az olimpiáról minden hellénnek hírt kellett kapnia, hogy biztosan odaérjenek.” Sok év után ismét táncháztalálkozót hirdetünk Udvarhelyen, a 40 éves erdélyi táncházat ünnepelve és éltetve. Most adunk hírt jó előre, hogy mindenki biztosan oda- és ráérjen: szeptember 22-23, Székelyudvarhely. Mindenkit várunk. Találkozni jó. Öröm rég nem látott kollégát, barátot megölelni, öröm a szabott és beosztott időn kívüli (szabad) időt együtt eltölteni, hogy ismét és ismét átéljük a találkozás örömét, azt, hogy országtól - kortól - lakhelytől függetlenül a táncházban, a hagyományos paraszti kultúra szeretetében, összetartozunk. Tegyünk félre bánatot és fájdalmakat. Tegyünk félre munkát, lakodalmat, szórakozást és termény-betakarítást. Találkozzunk. És közösen ismét le fogjuk győzni az Időt. Kelemen László
