A capital overflowing with energy

Bucharest, an often-overlooked destination, is a dynamic, constantly evolving and changing city full of culture. Its image was shaped by numerous historical events that created a mix of neoclassical, art deco, communist and modern architectural styles. Today, the Romanian capital is booming with construction, with elegant glass facades, high-rise buildings or a combination of architectures sprouting up all over the city. The most recognizable building in Bucharest is the megalomaniacal Palace of Parliament in Unirii Boulevard, built by former dictator Nicolae Ceausescu.

The Romanian capital surprises visitors with its diversity. The city contains numerous tourist attractions and offers modern and cool events in trendy cafés and bars, excellent restaurants and amazing bars. When sightseeing, make sure to add Palace of Parliament, the Romanian Athenaeum, the Romanian Peasant Museum and the old town of Lipscani to your list. Bucharest is a city of culture with plentiful and varied nightlife and has thus deservedly been nicknamed the “new Berlin”. The city’s charm also lies in the fact that it has not yet been flooded with crowds of tourists like some of the neighbouring capitals, and the prices still remain moderate.
