Rute

1. You'll start in Cismigiu Garden, where the app opens your case file and introduces the agent running it. Your first task is to find a carved stone by an old spring and spot the word missing from your photo. You'll learn who the stone woman bent over the basin really is, and why the grave she seems to mourn isn't here.

   8 min

2. You'll cross to Kretzulescu Church beside Revolution Square and solve a riddle about the bronze statue on a high pillar nearby. You'll learn who really built the church, and why it carries her husband's name instead.

   8 min

3. You'll stop by the National Military Circle and find the word hidden under the sticker on the fountain in your photo. You'll learn about the monastery that stood here for 240 years, and the crowd that carried its bricks home when it came down.

   8 min

4. You'll reach the CEC Palace and spot what's missing from your photo of its carved front. You'll learn about the man who wrote the first Romanian grammar, buried in a graveyard that now lies under the bank.

   8 min

5. You'll walk into the courtyard of Stavropoleos Monastery, decode a scrambled message and find a date on the old stones in the cloister. You'll learn where those carved stones came from, and why they belong to churches people still alive went to on Sundays.

   8 min

6. You'll stop at the small Church of Saint Demetrius off Lipscani and pick the right carved mask out of four photos. You'll learn about the Easter fire of 1847, which burned a third of the city while nobody counted the dead.

7. You'll reach the Old Court and Manuc's Inn and find what's missing from your photo of the inn's sign. You'll learn about the 1459 charter that first put Bucharest's name in writing, and how a London novelist turned the prince who signed it into Dracula.

   7 min

8. You'll stand by the Kilometre Zero marker and compare the statue of Constantin Brâncoveanu with your photo to find what's missing. You'll learn how his widow hid his grave in plain sight, and why nobody read it for 194 years.

   7 min

9. You'll stop at Colțea Hospital, the oldest in the city, and use a line-and-letter code on a stone plaque to find a password. You'll learn about the plague of 1813 and the cart-men who came for the dead, and sometimes for the living.

   7 min

10. You'll finish in University Square and pick the right photo of the rider's raised weapon out of four. You'll learn how whole churches were put on rails and moved in the 1980s, and how one still hides behind a block of flats.

About Bucharest

Belle époque-boulevarder, ortodokse kirker og monumenter fra kommunisttiden mødes rundt om en travl gammel bydel i Bukarest, Rumæniens hovedstad.

Parlamentspaladset, en af verdens største administrative bygninger, dominerer centrum som en slående arv fra Ceaușescu-tiden. Calea Victoriei, den store allé, fører forbi den kuppelformede koncertsal Det Rumænske Athenæum, det tidligere kongelige palads, der huser Nationalmuseet for Kunst, og Revolutionspladsen, hvor begivenhederne i 1989 udspillede sig.

Top-ranked sights in Bucharest: Palace of Parliament (Palatul Parlamentului), Revolution Square (Piata Revolutiei), Arcul de Triumf (Arch of Triumph).
