Romania: Bucharest and Baia Mare, tailor-made, fully flexible travel

Bucharest, the vibrant capital of Romania, has an outstanding heritage in the form of elegant historical buildings and valuable artistic gems inherited from its long and surprising past. A legacy that is also reinforced by an important leisure and entertainment offer, among which its more than 30 museums stand out, such as the Romanian History Museum, the Satului Museum and the George Enescu Museum, and beautiful parks where you can relax, such as the Herastrau park or the Cismigiu. Known by the European aristocracy as the "Paris of the East", Bucharest offers the traveler treasures of different styles such as neoclassical, art deco or belle epoque, where the Arcul de Triumf, the Romanian Athenaeum, the Bucharest Opera and Curtea stand out. Veche, the first Royal Court. It is also home to modern buildings that will bring you closer to the most current and capitalist city, and pharaonic and sober constructions from the communist era. In this sense, we recommend the Palace of Parliament, which according to the Guinness Book of Records is the most expensive, bulky and heavy administrative building on the planet; the Boulevard Unirii (Unity Boulevard), which runs through the Piata Unirii (Unity Square), both trying to imitate the Parisian Champs Elysées; and the Piata Revolutiei (Square of the Revolution), where the Central Committee of the Party was located. Without a doubt, one of the most attractive cities in Eastern Europe.

The city of Baia Mare, capital of the department of Maramures, is the mining city par excellence in Romania. Not in vain, Baia Mare literally means "Big Mine". Let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of the façade of the Baroque Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, which dates back to the 18th century. And go to the Piata Libertatii where the oldest building in the city is located, a mansion from 1440 with which the Transylvanian prince Iancu de Hunedoara gave his wife Elisabeta. In the same square is its famous Turnul lui Stefan (Stephen's Clock Tower), in the Gothic style.
