Buhui Clothing Factory

factory in Trgu Neamt, which had belonged to
the well-known patriot si political authority,
Mihail Kogalniceanu.

following years, the factory started to make a
profit and won the golden medal for the best

Ion Borcea Technical College is the most
beautiful love story of the town...It is a love
story which flirts with eternity. Once, when you
were thinking of Buhusi, things like famous
stanzas, the proverbial rabbis or the
international adventure of its female handball
immediately crossed your mind.
