   30분

3. On to another landmark square of Bucharest to see a stunning example of larger-than-life communist architecture, in the form of the Palace of the Parliament, the world's second largest administrative building after the Pentagon. Learn about the destruction of historic neighborhoods in order to erect this megalomaniac, controversial complex of structures, and go behind the colossal buildings to see relics of a bygone era.

4. At University Square, we explore one of the most powerful symbolic spaces in Bucharest’s recent history. This was the place where, in December 1989, protesters built barricades and confronted the regime during the Romanian Revolution, in the final days leading to the fall of communism. The square became a scene of courage, tension, and ultimately, change. We will also talk about the University Square phenomenon of 1990, when thousands of people gathered here for weeks in one of the longest anti-communist protests in Eastern Europe, demanding real democracy. This movement was violently suppressed during the June 1990 Mineriad, a key moment that shaped Romania’s post-communist path. More than just a central location, University Square remains a symbolic meeting point for Bucharest’s citizens, a place where people come together to mark important moments, protest, and express their voices. It continues to reflect the city’s spirit, memory, and ongoing connection to its recent past.

About Bucharest

Belle-époque boulevards, Orthodox churches and communist-era monuments meet around a busy old town in Bucharest, Romania's capital.

The vast Palace of the Parliament, among the largest administrative buildings in the world, dominates the centre as a striking legacy of the Ceaușescu era. Calea Victoriei, the grand avenue, leads past the domed Romanian Athenaeum concert hall, the former Royal Palace that houses the National Museum of Art, and Revolution Square, where the events of 1989 unfolded.
