There are places where time seems to stand still to admire the greatness of nature, and our commune, blessed by the clear waters of Strei and sheltered by mountain ridges, is certainly one of them. Whether you live day by day in Baru, grew up on the streets of Livadia, carry in your soul the peace of Petros or the wild beauty of Valea Lupului, this virtual space is dedicated to you.

A special thought goes out to all the sons and daughters of the village who have left for other lands, across the country or abroad. Distance cannot erase roots. This magazine is, in equal measure, yours too. We miss you and can't wait to hear from you from afar! We want to know how you are doing, what you are occupied with, what achievements you have, and how Baru looks through your eyes, from hundreds or thousands of kilometers away.

Info Baru was born out of the desire to gather in one place everything we hold most precious and authentic: the history written by our ancestors, the traditions that define us, and the stories of hardworking people. It is the space where we highlight our local treasures — from the spectacular murmur of the Șipotului Waterfalls and the rocky majesty of Bulzul Streiului, to the legends of Tecuri Cave and the open horizons from Tulișa Peak.

At the same time, we want this portal to be a helping hand extended every day, a way for those far away to stay connected, just a click away, with the pulse of their home community.

A strong community is one that knows its past and values its people, wherever they may be. We invite you to browse these digital pages, relive memories, and become part of this project by sending us your thoughts and stories.
