Here's a flavour of what the Crew of Light might be seeing in their journey through Romania.

Changing trains in Bucharest:

Bucharest, from between 1890 and 1900.

Place du Theatre, Bucharest, from the same period.

Strada Lipscani, Bucharest, circa 1900.

And when they reach Galatz (Galați):

Galați on 21 June 1897, when the Danube flooded the town centre.

Hello! I believe you are Romanian?? Do you have any recommandations on what to see/do in Bucharest? (if you ever visited there??)

i am! and i have visited the capital quite a few times. i'm not an expert on Bucharest, since it's so big and there's so much to explore (i still have so much to see myself), but depending on how much time you have on your hands, here are some recs (and even a non-rec, you'll see lol):

the "Old Town", also known as "Centrul Vechi", there's some lovely belle epoque architecture, mixed in with some byzantine elements, west meets east kind of thing, really narrow detours and zig-zaggy alleys (you'll see this mixture throughout Bucharest: try the big, pretty boulevards like Calea Victoriei and Lipscani)

the Atheneum is also very pretty (near the Roman Square - "Piața Romană") and i'd also recommend the "Suțu Palace" (Palatul Suțu).

the "Village Museum" (Muzeul Satului), this really cool open-air museum all about traditional village life throughout the centuries in Romania, it's quite lovely

the National Art Museum (Muzeul Național De Artă) which is HUGE and wonderfully stocked, but you'll need like...almost a whole day to see all of it. the building is also really beautiful. if you have more time, you should also check out a smaller branch called "Muzeul Colecțiilor de Artă" (museum of art collections), where you'll find really interesting art donated by important Romanian families

definitely try to see the Stavropoleos Monastery, one of the oldest places in the city. it is a jewel. you'll love it there (and it's right next to the national history museum). if you visit Romania there will be no shortage of churches and monasteries to see. i'm def biased but we have some of the most beautiful monasteries in the world. you'll see a lot of cool churches/monasteries in Bucharest.

"Hanul Lui Manuc" (Manuc's Inn) is one of those big historical sites you should cover (and it's also a restaurant!); it's a very old inn going back to the beginning of the 19th century and some fascinating stuff went down between its walls (we were still under Ottoman rule when it was built, and it hosted an important peace treaty between the Ottomans and the Russians). i haven't dined there in ages, but i hear the food's still good!

you should check out some of the big parks like Cișmigiu and Herăstrau. there's also this tinier park i'm really fond of called IOR (also called Titan), but that's if you have more days to spare.

on that note, and because this is turning into an eclectic list, try to get to "Lacul Morii" if you can (literally the "mill lake"); it's this lovely and eerie lake that has this very 'abandoned Greek temple' feel to it, due to the architecture and the wilder vegetation on its one island/peninsula (called the island of angels). if you're into spooky/eerie vibes, i highly recommend it, since in order to engineer this lake, a church and a cemetery had to be demolished during the communist regime and uhhh, you definitely feel a vibe when you walk around that area.

speaking of communism, there will be plenty of museums and national houses that you can visit which will tell you about that era in Romanian history if you're interested, but err, you can see it as you walk around town; the eastern bloc soviet architecture is everywhere in the city planning and the grey apartment blocks. most towns in Romania have this overlapping architectural style and most of us have a hate/love relationship to it. since Bucharest is one of the safest capitals in Europe, you can explore neighborhoods and streets outside the big tourist centers, just to get a taste of that. you'll see really lavish streets, and then really industrial-looking, kinda grundgy areas and sometimes there will be combos of really old and really new, or really beautiful and really ugly. it has its own charm. don't stray too far tho

i'd recommend using the pretty good subway system to get to various places (buses and trams are usually super-packed and while there's not so much pickpocketing going on here as in, say, a much more touristy place like Rome, it helps to be vigilant). if you use the subway system, try to see the "Piața Romană" platform (in sector 1) because it's one of the strangest subway platforms in the world. it was basically built in secret during communism, because the dictator's wife didn't understand the purpose of that particular area having a subway line, and so the architects and engineers had to do a very hush-hush hatchet job, which resulted in a place with really narrow platforms and this unique look to it. it has those eerie/spooky vibes i love

DON'T, imo, waste your time on the Parliament Palace, infamously known as "Casa Poporului" (the people's house). you'll hear a lot about this building and how it's the second largest in the world, but it's an ugly behemoth that Ceaușescu had built out of mania and ego and the city and ppl suffered for it. it's the most ironic name you could give a parliament building. it's ugly and lame. skip it.

there are many other places to see, but last thing i'll mention here if you can swing it is the newly refurbished Marmorosch Blank Bank, which is now a hotel & restaurant. it's jaw-dropping, gorgeous kitsch and super bougie and expensive, but if you can look around it's worth it.

anyway, hope you have fun and that you get smth out of the experience! (don't worry about language hick-ups, btw, a lot of Romanians, especially younger ppl, know pretty good English)

Bucarest: Tesori Nascosti di una Capitale in Evoluzione

Bucarest, la capitale della Romania, è una città che si svela con calma, rivelando i suoi tesori nascosti tra le sue strade animate e i suoi quartieri affascinanti. Il mio viaggio attraverso Bucarest è stato un'esperienza di scoperta, un'esplorazione di una città in costante evoluzione, dove il passato si fonde con il presente in un modo affascinante.

Il cuore storico di Bucarest è rappresentato dal suo affascinante centro, dove ho passeggiato tra edifici eleganti, piazze spaziose e parchi lussureggianti. La Piazza della Rivoluzione, con il suo monumento al potere popolare e il Palazzo del Parlamento, testimonia la storia tumultuosa del paese e la sua lotta per la libertà.

Il quartiere di Lipscani è stato una piacevole scoperta, con le sue strade lastricate e i suoi edifici storici restaurati. Qui, ho esplorato boutique alla moda, caffetterie accoglienti e ristoranti alla moda, godendo dell'atmosfera vivace e cosmopolita che pervade la zona.

Bucarest è anche una città che abbraccia l'arte e la cultura, come dimostra il suo vivace quartiere degli artisti, la zona di Piața Amzei e Piața Rosetti. Qui, ho visitato gallerie d'arte moderne, teatri indipendenti e spazi creativi, immergendomi nella scena artistica emergente della città.

Il Parco Herastrau è stato un'oasi di tranquillità nel cuore della città, dove ho trascorso momenti di relax passeggiando lungo i sentieri alberati e ammirando il lago sereno. Le attività ricreative come il ciclismo, il pattinaggio e il kayak hanno reso l'esperienza ancora più piacevole.

La cucina rumena mi ha deliziato con la sua semplicità e autenticità. Ho assaggiato piatti tradizionali come il sarmale (foglie di cavolo ripiene) e la mămăligă (polenta), accompagnati da salsicce affumicate e formaggi locali. Ogni pasto era un'esplosione di sapori che rifletteva la ricca tradizione culinaria del paese.

Le serate a Bucarest si sono animate nei suoi vivaci bar e locali notturni, dove ho ballato al ritmo della musica e ho fatto nuove amicizie con i locali e i visitatori provenienti da tutto il mondo. La vivace vita notturna della città è un riflesso della sua energia e della sua diversità culturale.

In conclusione, Bucarest è una città che sorprende e affascina con la sua bellezza, la sua storia e la sua vivace atmosfera. Con i suoi tesori nascosti e le sue opportunità in continua evoluzione, Bucarest è una destinazione imperdibile per chiunque desideri scoprire il cuore pulsante della Romania.

Peste vreo cinci ani, tinerii istorici ai Academiei Române vor publica articole în care ne vor demonstra că sașii erau un fel de tîrgoveți băjenari din Muntenia. :)))) ... și majoritatea trăiau pe strada Lipscani. Pardon. În Pantelimon.
