    A quaint open air museum of various structures from the history of Romania. Houses, churches and windmills. The lady at the ticket booth entrance D was extremely helpful. We went on the 3rd of October. The only downside was there was no warning or indication that the Palace was off limits to the public, no signs or chains and you could wander over to it from the village. The cafe was really nice. The cake/pastry we had there was really good. You would need around 3 hours plus to do this properly as there is so much to see. Ideal to walk around on a pleasant day.

    Cool building in neoclassical style. You can visit inside for a small fee. Located in the most elegant part of the city, you better not to miss.

    Central road, leading to the centre, full of restaurants and life. Come and walk, always with nose up for seeing some amazing building around.

    A stunning building.

    A must-see in Bucharest - but won’t take much time and you can’t miss it if you’re in the centre.

    Would be nice to have a board nearby with information on!

    This is a surprisingly huge museum (100 rooms on 3 floors maybe) where you can find many paintings of great (and internationally unknown) Romanian painters. It is not to be confused by the National Museum of Arts, but also run by the state. I especifically liked Josef Iser, he had several entire rooms. There is no highlighting or explaining, but a lot of very friendly (little English speaking) staff guiding your way. I accidentally payed a bit too much and the ticket selling woman came a long way to the second floor to me give me back the money). There is also impressive furniture. All in all well worth your time.

    If you are in Revolutionary Square, worth popping in to this church. The frescos are good, but not as good as those in the Monastery or in the New George Church

    On our final day having just visited the Palatul Parlamentului we took the short walk to Antim Monastery, the centrepiece being the small but beautiful church.

    The intricate design of the door is the first thing you notice on the approach, inside is quite snug but has plenty going on in a decorative sense with many paintings on the walls and a high domed ceiling.

    Well worth popping in if you are passing by.

    Lot of Imperial buildings in the area and quite overwhelming in size. Fantastic metro system worth a visit. Don't try crossing the road except at traffic lights or underpass, with shops.
    Lots of exchange shops in the area. Side streets look quite dingy but there are hidden churches and the top entrance to the old town.

    The place is nice and would be even better once they finish the outside restauration work. Nice ideas. Imposing sizes, red marble downstairs makes you feel royalty. For an 1923 building has quite modern features. For current times, it is an elegant monument.

    Beautiful palace situated on the gorgeous Victoriei boulevard, home to the National Museum of Art of Romania.

    I visited the library on the occasion of the "Night of the Museums" event. It was a guided tour during which several halls were visited which, otherwise, it is probably more difficult to visit. The building, very old (commissioned in 1895), is wonderful, being recently renovated. It was built at the initiative of King Carol I. It suffered major damages over time, during the bombings of WW II, the earthquake of 1977 and the Revolution of 1989. Now, however, it is restored and looks wonderful!

    The weight of this review is for travellers who intend to use the airport train, with a few tips and observations. I've travelled into Bucharest quite a few times now, but have reached the limit of tolerating rip off yellow taxis; meters that don't work; a rate of 100 ROM to get downtown (higher than that quoted in airport arrivals); cash only; and difficulties of getting a receipt (the driver hunting through a sheaf of receipts from the glove compartment, with a variety of rates / dates wouldn't be accepted by the folks that audit my company credit card submissions). On this trip, I travelled both ways on the airport train. So here goes:

    1. It's cheap. 5 ROM for a one-way journey. Like that's really cheap!

    2. Payment is easy. Either the ticket office in the station, or my preferred option, a machine in the ticket office. Just look for the bottom option - that's the one for the airport train (the language options are either Romanian or English). 5 ROM in exchange for a ticket, and that all valuable receipt. You can also pay remotely on the train (no receipt), or the conductor.

    3. It's quick. 19 minutes. OK, so that might not be to your final destination, but it's less scary than a taxi, free of the driver's cigarette smoke and less frustrating than being stuck in Bucharest traffic.

    4. They depart every 40 minutes.

    5. Getting on at Gara du Nord is easy. Get your ticket and jump on the next train (mine was platform 4). Getting off at the airport, well getting to Departures is not as well connected as you might think, but follow the arrows and you will eventually make it. Eventually.....

    6. Whoever designed the carriages is clearly not an air traveller. You'd think there'd be space for baggage right? Wrong. And split floor levels / steps are really not helpful for those passengers with baggage. And the carriages are noisy, rock and sway around a fair bit, they just feel old fashioned and really should be better!

    7. But it beats the yellow taxi anyway!

    Bragadiru Palace is a hidden gem of Bucharest. Built around 1900, was a venue where the Romanian high society used to party and get together for social events,
    Beautiful architectural building still preserves the somptuos decorations of the time. Nowadays it’s hosting couple of good restaurants and it’s still a beautiful venue for cultural and social events. If you want to visit, try to get there for a concert. The atmosphere will be special.

    My brother booked accommodation in the old town, brilliantly situated in walking distance of many restaurants and places to visit. The highlight for me was the Parliament building. Great tour guide gave interesting insight into Ceausescu’s vanity project that he never got to enjoy. I coped fairly well with the 30 plus temperatures but a cooler visit would have been more enjoyable.
