Complexul Studențesc

Complexul Studențesc (Romanian for "Student Complex") is a district of Timișoara, where the city's main universities – West University and Politehnica University – are situated. Located south of the Bega Canal, Complexul Studențesc was built to house the students of the two universities in the early 1960s.

It is one of the densest areas of the city in terms of population. Here there are several dozen student dormitories, noted for their murals, which house more than 10,000 students annually. The area is also noted for its vibrant nightlife, with dozens of bars, pubs, and clubs bordering the main pedestrian alley – Aleea Studenților ("Students' Alley").
