Țara Călatei

According to the 2011 Romanian census, ethnic Hungarians number about 20,000 people and form a minority of 30 percent of the total population.

The region as it is known today lies mainly west of Cluj-Napoca, although there are also some villages to the north and east as well which follow Kalotaszeg (Călata) customs.

Hungarians are the largest ethnic minority in the region, and make up a majority in some villages.

Female traditional clothing is distinguished through its highly colourful and ornate appearance, usually accented by pearl-laden headwear.
