Unsurprisingly really seeing as it\u2019s the largest administrative building in the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite it being such a large tourist attraction, particularly at night when lit up, the building still divides the people of Romania. Many would rather see it demolished because of its communist background then left standing to continue attracting tourists.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #7ad39d;\">Herastrau Park<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anyone who spends a bit of time in the city will come to the same conclusion. Bucharest has some incredible parks and green spaces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">During the summer months the parks are full of life, music concerts, open air cinemas, endless food trucks and other entertainment are all part of the norm. While there are a number of impressive parks in Bucharest the largest and most impressive is Herastrau Park which is just as popular with locals as it is with tourists. A gorgeous setting that shouldn\u2019t be missed regardless of the time of year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/noplacetobe.com\/featured\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/9463434943_6e4c6fdc21_z.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1023\" src=\"http:\/\/noplacetobe.com\/featured\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/9463434943_6e4c6fdc21_z.jpg\" alt=\"Flickr Credit: \u0218tefan Jurc\u0103\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/noplacetobe.com\/featured\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/9463434943_6e4c6fdc21_z.jpg 640w, http:\/\/noplacetobe.com\/featured\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/9463434943_6e4c6fdc21_z-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Creative Commons Flickr Credit:\u00a0<a class=\"owner-name truncate\" style=\"font-weight: 600; color: #212124;\" title=\"Go to \u0218tefan Jurc\u0103's photostream\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/stefanjurca\/\" data-track=\"attributionNameClick\" data-rapid_p=\"36\">\u0218tefan Jurc\u0103<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #7ad39d;\">The Old Town (and everything in it)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the centre of all tourism in the city. You\u2019ll find most of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.ie\/Bucharest-Hotels.d719.Travel-Guide-Hotels\" target=\"_blank\">hotels in Bucharest<\/a> around this area along with many of the most popular bars and restaurants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Old Town is home to many of the most famous monuments and museums in Bucharest but is also an attraction in itself, you can easily spend a couple of hours just wandering around and enjoying the old buildings and churches on display.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #7ad39d;\">Bucharest Free Walking Tour<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And what better way then to explore the old town than with an experienced guide, especially when it\u2019s free. We\u2019ve been on these free walking tours a couple of times in Bucharest and also in Brasov, not once have they disappointed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Each time the guides have been very knowledgeable but also light-hearted and fun enough to make a 2.5hr walk absolutely fly by. If you want to learn a little history about the city you\u2019re visiting then these tours are a must, a great option for your first morning in Bucharest.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #7ad39d;\">Caru Cu Bere<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After all this exploring you\u2019ll be wanting to sit down somewhere for a cold beer and some hearty food. Ask most people where to take a guest in Bucharest and they\u2019ll tell you the same thing, Caru Cu Bere.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The restaurant is an old beer house turned stunning restaurant in the old town of Bucharest. Walking in through the revolving doors you\u2019ll mesmerised by the impressive interior and if visiting at the weekend, live music and traditional dancing. There are plenty of traditional Romanian dishes to choose from and the lively atmosphere will make for an exciting evening.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While there is much more to Bucharest than these five attractions, they\u2019ll certainly get you on the right track when it comes to getting a feel for this exciting city.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #d1a46d;\">Have you been to Bucharest recently?
