Overview

Discover a Bucharest that's very much alive and constantly changing. From the belle époque, turn-of-the-century iconic Victory Avenue downtown also with some 1930s Manhattan influences to the new Civic Centre, a 1980s totalitarian utopia turned current dystopia dominated by the surroundings of the largest Parliament in the world, you get the full experience and the chance to understand this unforgiving city that many love to hate while uncovering hidden gems off the beaten path. Mandatory observations along the dedicated routes also come with exciting side information.

    Piaka Constitukiei

    Everyone knows the Parliament (a.k.a. the People's House), that gigantic palace in the heart of Bucharest and the large avenues surrounding it, but is that what Bucharest is all about? This tours goes behind the scenes and unveils how the Romanian Capital's central street network was destroyed, how historical areas were cut off from the city life, became isolated and started decaying, all of them sacrificed for a new, dystopian city centre where Ceaușescu would rule supreme.
