The tour begins at the landmark building considered the most beautiful in the city. We will walk on Calea Victoriei, the avenue where kings had their daily strolls, admiring Belle Epoque jewels like the CEC Palace and the University Library.
In contrast, you will understand the harsh communist oppression. Tales of hunger, food rations, and the brutal revolution of December 1989 that led to the downfall of Dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu will be brought to life with photos from that era.
Next, we walk in the Old Town on the steps of the most gruesome character in history – Vlad Dracula. You will see an eclectic mix of buildings including the National Bank of Romania, Stavropoleos Monastery, and Villacrosse Passage.
We conclude the tour at Manuc’s Inn, an incredible building from the 1800s. Here, you will understand how Bucharest evolved at the merger between East and West.
