September 7, 2011

Bucharest will leave you feeling as though you have traveled back in time, as well as leave you mesmerized by the way of life and the people. Romania has so much to offer travelers. This city has something to offer everyone, no matter your travel budget or level of experience.

Bucharest has well-established tourism guides, operators, accommodations, tours, and more. If you are looking for beautiful architecture of diverse centuries and influences, this city may be your architectural mecca. Visit the Romanian Atheneum, Stavropoleos Church, The Village Museum, National Art Museum, The Parliament Palace, Cantacuzino Palace, The Old Court Church, and more. Each building is a stark contrast from the next.

The Village Museum is a must visit if you do not intend to visit the Romanian countryside. They have recreated a traditional village by having relocated buildings, houses, windmills, and more to this one location. It has over 300 sites, winding paths, and is host to fairs and festivals throughout the year. They literally bring the countryside and their past to you.

If you are looking for something a bit different, visit the Cismigui Gardens. This garden area is located in the heart of Bucharest. When you need a break from the city hustle, head to the gardens. It is tranquil and relaxing to walk around or to have a rest. On occasion, they have concerts on Sunday at the gazebo, and you can row on the lake, or visit the beer garden. It is an ideal way to unwind after a busy day.

Before you leave, be certain to visit University Square. You may see the entire city pass you by if you stand around long enough. It is the most popular meeting point and is surrounded by interesting architecture. Your stay in Bucharest will be one you will remember forever.
