==The city== The city is situated along the [[Bârzava (Timiș)|Bârzava River]], which meets the [[Doman (river)|Doman River]] in the centre of town. Most of the urban area is concentrated along the Bârzava, with some development—mostly residential—in the surrounding hills. It is made of three main areas, two former villages that were very close: '''Romanian Reșița''' ({{langx|ro|link=no|Reșița Română}} or Olah Resitza) and '''Highland Reșița''' ({{langx|ro|link=no|Reșița Montană}}, Eisenwerk Reschitza or Nemet Reschitza); a new area, recently built, made of tower blocks on a wide opened meadow, called '''Bârzava's Meadow'''.<ref name="Historamic view over Resita city centre">{{cite web|url = http://www.historypin.com/attach/uid42613/tours/take/id/1734/title/Historamic%20view%20over%20Resita%20downtown/#1|title = Historamic view over Reșița downtown|website = www.historypin.com|date = 18 June 2010|access-date = 23 December 2013}}</ref> {| class="wikitable left" width="80%" |+ Neighbourhoods of Reșița ! scope="col" | Neighbourhood<br />name<br /> !! scope="col | Official name !! scope="col | Former name !! scope="col | Occasional name !! scope="col | Additional name |- ! scope="row" | New City | Bârzava's Meadow || New Reșița || North Reșița || Govândari |- | colspan=6 | {{align|left|entirely built after 1965, under the [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Socialist Romania]], it contains 4 zone areas around a ''main boulevard'', called [[microdistrict|microraions]], a legacy term of the former Soviet Union: * '''Micro I''' * '''Micro II''' * '''Micro III''' * '''Micro IV'''}} |- ! scope="row" | Downtown | City Centre || Romanian Reșița || South Reșița || N/A |- | colspan="6" | {{align|left|rebuilt after the installment of the [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Socialist Romania]] in 1947,<ref name="Historamic view over Resita city centre" /> it contains the following zone areas: * '''Centre''' – [[Civic center]], rarely City centre * '''Doman''' – The Doman's Valley <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Valea Domanului}}) * '''Luncă''' – The Pomost's [[Meadow]] <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Lunca Pomostului}}) * '''Moroasa''' made of Moroasa I and II * '''Romanian Reșița''' ({{langx|ro|link=no|Reșița Română}}) * '''The Clear Glade Hill''' or The Clear [[Glade (geography)|Glade]] Colony <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Colonia Poiana Golului}})}} |- ! scope="row" | Old City | Commuter belt <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Muncitoresc)}}<br /> ||Highland Reșița ||Old Reșița ||N/A |- | colspan=6 | {{align|left|it has the oldest buildings of the city, mostly houses, and it contains the following zone areas: *'''New Driglovăț''' <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Driglovățul Nou}}) *'''Old Driglovăț''' <br />({{langx|ro|link=no|Driglovățul Vechi}}) *[[Weir]] ({{langx|ro|link=no|Stăvila}}) *'''Minda''' *'''Bașovăț''' *'''Lend''', Marginea Lend or just Marginea}} |- |} The Civic centre of the city has been partially renovated in 2006. An important point of attraction located in the City Centre is the impressive kinetic fountain designed by [[Constantin Lucaci]], built in the communist era. There are also important cultural points in Reșița that have been renewed in 2006, including the Concrete School (Școala de Beton), Downtown, and the Polyvalent Hall (Sala Polivalentă). The [[Reșița Steam Locomotive Museum]] features [[Romania]]'s first locomotive built in Romania at Reșița in 1872, and is located in the open-air museum in the ({{langx|ro|link=no|Triaj}}) neighborhood. An important iron and steel center, Reșița is the site of [[blast furnace]]s, iron foundries, and plants producing electrical appliances, [[Chemical substance|chemicals]] and machinery (''see [[Reșița works]]''). {{multiple image | align = right | direction = horizontal | header = | width = 200 | image1 = Rs20thcentury.jpg | alt1 = View of the Reșița's local factory in the early 20th century | caption1 = Local factory in the early 20th century | image2 = 230 DCE.jpg | alt2 = Present time view of a small part of the Reșița Steelworks | caption2 = Small part of the Reșița Steelworks | image3 = Reșița, primăria la noapte 1.jpeg | alt3 = City Hall in the City Centre | caption3 = City Hall in the City Centre | image4 = 0150 DCE.jpg | alt4 = Museum of Highland Banat | caption4 = Museum of Highland Banat | image5 = Resita Casa de Cultura.jpg | alt5 = Community Centre | caption5 = Community Centre }} The city is a hub for leisure locations all around. Locations near Reșița include the [[ski resort]] at [[Semenic]], Lake Gozna, Lake Secu, the Trei Ape Lake (Three Rivers Lake), [[Brebu Nou|Gărâna]], [[Brebu, Caraș-Severin|Brebu]], and [[Văliug]].
