About Boekarest

Het enorme Parlementspaleis, een van de grootste administratieve gebouwen ter wereld, domineert het centrum als een opvallende erfenis uit de tijd van Ceaușescu. De Calea Victoriei, de grote laan, voert langs de koepelvormige concertzaal Roemeens Athenaeum, het voormalige Koninklijk Paleis, waar nu het Nationaal Kunstmuseum zit, en het Revolutieplein, waar de gebeurtenissen van 1989 zich afspeelden.
