The Parliament Palace in Bucharest was built by Romania’s former dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, a few years before he was executed in connection with the 1989 revolution.

In Bucharest, there is a large selection of traditional crafts such as ceramics, wool products, hand-embroidered tablecloths, and wood carvings.

In northern Bucharest, there is a lake called Herăstrău. Around it lies a beautiful park with the same name which has beautiful trees, flowers, historical monuments, and fine fountains to show off.
