| Day 1 - arrival in Bucharest, followed by city tour Upon your arrival, you will be greteed by your private guide and start discovering the city right away. With a population of just over 2 million, Bucharest is the largest city between Berlin and Athens. Nicknamed "The little Paris" between the two World Wars, Bucharest is, nowadays, a city of contrasts. 45 years of Communist rule changed the aspect of the city dramatically, but still, traces of the old, bohemian times can be found, especially in the French architecture of the residential districts and the famous churches that still survive throughout the Romanian capital. The city tour will give you the opportunity to admire some of the landmarks of Bucharest, such as the Arch of Triumph (inspired by the one in Paris), the Atheneum (Romania’s most famous concert hall), the Revolution Square (where the 1989 anti - Communist revolt went nationwide) and the Romanian Patriarch’s Church. You will also enjoy a guided tour of the Palace of Parliament, the world’s second largest building, after the U.S. Pentagon, built by Ceausescu, Romania’s Communist dictator.- Accommodation in Bucharestat a 3*, 4* or 5 * Hotel.
