Bucharest has its share of good and bad.
Of tradition and modern. Concrete and steel. Refinement and kitsch.
This post wants to be an exploration of the old revisited, elegance updated and history understood.
Architecturally, Bucharest is the surprising and controversial symbiosis between classic beautiful buildings, modern glass structures and grey communist constructions, but all these elements have come to coexist peacefully in Romania’s capital city, one you will most certainly enjoy!
Although a former communist capital, today’s Bucharest has grown into a European capital with all the rights and fulfilling all pretences. Buildings, monuments, relaxation spots, museums, artistic life, day life and night life, beautiful architecture and ugly architecture, Bucharest took the best and is now ready to unveil in front of you some of its hottest chilling spots, together with some eating recommendations.
The biggest communist landmark in Bucharest, erected on Ceausescu’s orders, the Palace of the Parliament, has colossal dimensions. To have an idea, just like the Great Wall of China and the Pentagon, the Palace of the Parliament can be seen from the moon.
Bucharest has been given many names: little Paris, new Berlin, or Eastern Europe’s capital of fun, but we know for sure it is a city of contrasts where refined Belle Epoque buildings intertwine with boulevards of communism, the shape of monarchy meets modern glass architecture, and the good vibes of the Old Town are in love with street art.
