Description
Embark on Bucharest's fascinating journey from medieval roots to Dracula's Old Princely Court. Explore the city's vibrant contrasts and iconic landmarks, including the colossal Palace of Parliament.
Bucharest is a city of contrasts.

Explore the Revolution Square with a view of the Royal Palace, the Romanian Athenaeum and the Headquarters of the Romanian Communist Party, where the Romanian Revolution started in December 1982. Admire the University Square, with the second-oldest modern university in Romania, and the neo-classical building of the first hospital from Bucharest, Coltea Hospital. Learn all about the Old Princely Court, the residence of many rulers of old Wallachia, including Vlad the 3rd, also known as Dracula. Wonder at the Palace of Parliament, the largest administrative building in the world. You can enjoy all these changes just by visiting some of the highlights and landmarks of this vibrant city.
