    În centrul oraşului Craiova, în aceeaşi curte cu sediul central al Bibliotecii Judeţene "Alexandru şi Aristia Aman" se află casa în care a locuit poeta Elena Farago, reprezentantă strălucită a literaturii române şi a vieţii culturale craiovene. Numită directoare a Fundaţiei "Alexandru şi Aristia Aman" în septembrie 1921, poeta a condus timp de peste trei decenii destinele acestui lăcaş de cultură, având contribuţii deosebite în ceea ce priveşte regulamentul de organizare şi funcţionare al bibliotecii, fişarea cărţilor şi ţinerea unei evidenţe corecte de aranjare a publicaţiilor în rafturile bibliotecii, de completare a colecţiilor prin achiziţii şi donaţii. După preluarea conducerii fundaţiei, poeta s-a mutat în casa care putea "servi drept locuinţă personalului în servicul bibliotecii şi muzeului" conform testamentului Aristiei Aman. Aici a trăit şi a creat până la sfârşitul vieţii sale. În casa memorială se păstrează cărţi, documente, fotografii, scrisori, mobilier şi alte obiecte care au aparţinut poetei şi familiei sale.

    A place of childhood. "And it's not the whisper of thought - but when Master, the longing for silence rises from the mind, It's a song that has neither name nor words Don't beg, and don't mourn, and it's still sad and gentle. And I'm not trying a word to match him, I'm afraid - That I would pretend it in thoughts, and the thoughts ache, That there are often mad rebellions in their speech, As I submit to fate, I just call you... The time is increasing, standing on the road between us And it's getting harder and harder to count them, and they're more and more merciless... How well the silent singer knows them all And I don't know who tells me that they listen to him..." Elena Farago

    It is a less visited location. But it was visited by presidents of Romania, ministers, other personalities from the country, as well as from abroad. I recommend you not to pass by it without visiting it.

👍👍 A small well-kept park (square) where you can sit in silence or to meet someone for a little walk. There is a lot of greenery and a fountain in the shape of a cross. I enjoyed walking there.

😠 I was absolutely shocked and honestly horrified by the way these poor poor animal are kept. They are left in the baking hot sun with practically no shade. They mostly seemed very skinny and sickly. The whole experience was awful to say the least. I truly hope that these animals are eventually freed....
