Cismigiu Park

posted by nmathews on 16 August 2010 at 16:41

Cismigiu Park is a really lovely spot, a perfect place to head on a warm day if sightseeing has got too much for you. There's a lake in the middle and you can rent rowboats. There's also a fine beer garden and loads of people watching to be done (especially in the chess area).

Royal Palace

posted by jlaurenzi on 16 August 2010 at 16:36

The National Galley of Romania is housed in the former royal palace building. It has a reasonably large collection of works by European masters but I would say that this collection is less impressive than those that you would find in capitals all over Europe and you should visit instead for the Romanian art section which is wonderful and well curated. A personal favourite was the Brancussi room.

Palace of Parliament

posted by hfranks on 16 August 2010 at 14:05

The Palace of Parliament is a bizarre sight and a slightly sad one. Bucharest certainly isn't the place you'd imagine finding the second biggest building in the world and the boulevards leading to it are a bit dilapidated. Nonetheless it is an absolutely magnificent structure. You can get tours of some of the interior and stand on te balcony where Michael Jackson made his famous "Hello Budapest" address.

Statue Park

posted by bstough on 16 August 2010 at 13:57

The Statue Park is really interesting if you can hack the 3,000 price tag. This is where you'll find all the comunist statues and monuments that have been ripped out of the centre of town. It's a bus ride out to the edge of town...
