The Statue of Trajan in Deva is a historical landmark that serves as a central meeting point for both locals and tourists. Reviewers generally appreciate the monument's aesthetic, often describing it as a beautiful feature of the city's landscape. The atmosphere around the statue is typically described as relaxed, making it a pleasant spot for a brief pause during a walk. However, some visitors have criticized the recent architectural renovations of the surrounding plaza, noting that the layout of benches and tiles feels poorly executed. The square gains significant popularity during the winter months when it transforms into a festive location for the Christmas market. Despite some mixed feelings about the urban design, it remains a well-rated and easy-to-visit point of interest in Deva.
