Trouble began at P\u00e2clele Mari in Buz\u0103u, an area known for the Mud Volcanoes. \u201cBecause the surface mud was so sticky, my shoe was taken by the mud,\u201d ambassador Takashi Katae said in the video posted on the official page of the Japanese Embassy in Romania.<\/p>\n
He also tried local products. \u201cThese are the Ple\u0219coi sausages. Now I will try the Buz\u0103u pretzels. Greetings from the ruins of the Pietroasele thermal baths!”<\/p>\n\n
