    The heart and soul of Bucharest, Old Town is overwhelming during weekdays, nevermind weekends. Thick with pubs, clubs, restaurants, even theaters, you are bound to spend at least a few memorable nights there.

  2. Palace of Parliament/National Museum of Contemporary Art

    Our "beloved" dictator left behind a monument to concrete and megalomania - The People's House, a.k.a. The Palace of Parliament. It also hosts the National Museum of Contemporary Art and a nice terrace bar at the 4th floor.

  3. The Peasant Museum and the Village Museum

    insights into romanian customs chill

    A quite special way to spend half a day in Bucharest. The 2 museums are a time capsule for romanian folklore: architecture, clothing, woodworks, pottery, etc.

  4. Take a walk on Calea Victoriei (Victory Avenue)
