45°45′7″N 21°15′25″E Prințul Turcesc–Lunei is a district of Timișoara. The area was once renowned for its craft fairs. It also hosted a restaurant called "Împăratul Turcesc" (Turkish Emperor), later renamed "Prințul Turcesc" (Turkish Prince), which served as a gathering place for Ottoman craftsmen from south of the Danube.[1][2] The restaurant's name eventually inspired the name of the district. The district underwent significant architectural changes during the final years of Ceaușescu's rule, leaving behind a contrasting mix of apartment blocks and old houses.[3]
