However, even if you aren’t a big reader (but especially if you are), the Cărturești Carusel Bookshop located in one of the most beautiful buildings in Europe. You can go see the ruins of the old Princely Court, where a monument to Vlad the Impaler currently stands, or have a drink in Manuc’s Inn, the oldest still operating hotel in the city. The Lipscania area is one of our favorites. While much of the city’s architecture is the result of an austere period around the 1980’s, Bucharest still has some old world charm. For any drinkers in the group, an ale at the La Bariera Inn will show you the pleasure in keeping certain traditions alive. There are also many exhibitions and collections which show you how this has influenced the present. Showcasing traditional Romanian village life, there are authentic buildings which reveal how Romanians have lived in the past. If you want to go back even further, the Dimitrie Gusti National Village Museum located in the King Michael I Park is a revelation.
Not only are there some impressive visuals, but the guided tours will give you a glimpse into the fascinating transitions the country has gone through, some effects of which are yet to be fully realized. Whether well-versed or completely green, a trip to the Palace of the Parliament is a must. If you know about Romania’s history, you will know it has had its upheavals. There are busts of some of the country’s best writers, a boating lake for summer and some of the most picturesque spots in Bucharest.
All the same, it remains a distinctly Romanian space. It is the largest park in the city and is reminiscent of various famous parks across the world (New York’s Central Park springs to mind). Whatever season in which you visit Bucharest, you can’t miss out on a walk through Cișmigiu Gardens.
