Bucharest, Romania is UNDERRATED (Part 2) 

I love the song from the beginning! Anton Pan! Very classical old music!

very nice! im adding Bucharest to my travel bucket list😍

Background music: „Leliță Săftiță” (Madam Săftiţa) is a Romanian folk written by Anton Pann with a strong Byzantine influence, most likely written at the beginning of the 19th century

Bucharest has a lot to offer. There are many monuments and historical buildings in the capital, which are extremely beautiful. To name a few: CEC bank, Caru' cu Bere, Hanul lui Manuc, Stavropoleos Church, Mihai Voda Church (the only church built in his time in Bucharest 1594), Atheneu Palace, National Museum of Art (built by King Carol the 2nd to be his seat of power), Hotel Cismigiu, Hotel Capsa and so many other incredible buildings. The secret to enjoying Bucharest is to take a walk through the center and stop and really look at each individual building. It's a place where many different styles from across Europe and the Middle East come together. That's the reason I love this city so much and I think is underrated by many (especially other Romanians).

Well done for promoting Romania!!❤🙏❤

Bucharest used to look really good before but then it was bombed in WW2, went through a horrible earthquake in 1977 and during the regime the commies mutilated the city by demolishing old beautiful historical buildings and replacing them with commie flats, they did this in most cities in Romania, especially outside of Transylvania. Then from 1989 to early 2000s Romania experienced an abrupt and chaotic transition to democracy. In 1990 it used to be the second poorest country in Europe after Albania and now there are 10-11 poorer countries in Europe. In conclusion Romania is a young country when it comes to democracy reason why you'll see that our infrastructure, urban landscaping and salaries are not top notch like in Western Europe but we are on the right path and things are changing slowly. Also during our history we were always fighting different empires in order to survive and keep our identity, due to this fact and due to our geographical position we basically did not have just as much time to progress, colonize other continents and get rich like most Western European countries.

We need big bells to scare all the vampires away😂

Out country is very Beautiful and on the Time of ceausescu Time everybody Had a nice live Now is geting Beter and Beter as the Time pass

My advice for you guys is to pay more attention to the period of the Kingdom here in Romania and less of the Communist one. the Kingdom is much less known outside and it has vastly more to offer as far as historical and cultural relevance and the Communist period was ever able to provide. If you can find tours on the Kingdom, go for it, it's a true historical hidden gen. Visit the Triumphant Arch, the Royal Palace (currently the National Art Museum) where the historical areas can be visited as well as the Throne Room, visit the National History Museum (where you can see for example the Crown of the Kings of Romania which, as far as I know is the only steel crown made after the Medieval Era and that particular piece of steel out of which the Crown is made has a fabulous piece of history and acts of arms tied to it), visit the Elisabeta Palace, the current Residence of the Romanian Royal Family, King Carol I Park where you will also see the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Cișmigiu Park, the University of Bucharest (which was inaugurated on 4th of July, 1864, by degree of Crown Prince Alexandru-Ioan Cuza) as well as the University's Central Library (Biblioteca Centrală Universitară - BCU) constructed at the order of King Carol I. The vast majority of Bucharest (as well as other cities and regions in the country) are a result of the period of the Kingdom. If able go and visit the mountain region, it is amazingly beautiful! Go to Sinaia, Sibiu, Sighișoara, Brașov amazing cities. And forget "Dracula's Castle"... that's a tourist trap XD (one which makes us a tone of money... but a tourist trap... If you go there go there for the actual Bran Castle and learn about its actual history which is MUCH more interesting, see Corvin Castle, Cantacuzino Castle (yes, the same Cantacuzino Family which were Emperors of the Byzantine Empire) and Peleș and Pelișor Castles which are the Summer Residence and Seat of the Romanian Royal Family. Communism is a dark part of history which has little to offer, steer to more interesting stuff... both modern and even more older.... if you know where to look you can go back more than 2.000 years back in time to the Roman Empire ;) Enjoy your stay here you two!

Glad to see more youtubers promoting a deserving yet underrated space which is Romania. You cld also tick ✅ more Rom. locations which are just as outstanding! I'm taking tips from another group of youtubers, the Romaniacs, for future refs... Thanks and goodluck with your channel! 📲🤳

"overwhelmingly extravagant" that's exactly what my mom said (but in romanian) in the 80's when we saw on tv what they were doing in Bucharest. At the time, I thought it was just a very big, ugly building built by a dictatorial peasant with bombastic personality but now, after I visited it and knowing romanian history, I think that it's not a palace but a fortress. Most of the building is underground, capable of resisting atomic blats, of hosting thousands of people, has tunnels for driving cars under the 'palace' over six kilometers long, etc. It's a fortress that actually reflects architecturally very well Ceausescu's delusions of grandeur, the poverty/misery felt by Romanians during those times and the ugliness of tyranny

The link of music please ? 😀 P.S.: You do a very good job, keep going ! We want more ❤️

Music: Barbu Lăutarul

.Ciao.Good job.

for this stupid building it was destroyed a big big quarter and a lot of people were forced to leave their home in case not a construct machine enter in their home

" Pa" or " La revedere" is Bye or See you soon🥰🥰🥰😁

great video! Thanks for sharing, do you mind sharing the name of the background song?

You should go visit Transilvania

Yes ! He build for him this palace but we the ppl sturved, we didn ' t have light, t.v , food , hot water, etc and he lived in luxury 😔

Not struggling to put food on the table, the 80s were much worse than that. The basics, bread, sugar, flour, vegetable oil, butter, meat were rationalized and very limited. Oranges and bananas, only during Xmas if you got lucky and after waiting in line for 2h. Toilet paper sometimes impossible to find. Heat, hot water in the winter, very limited. Power would go down in the winter in the evening to save electricity. TV, 2 channels a few hours per day, more on Sundays and almost all TVs were black and white - upside, no commercials. Only 2-3 types of soda, 1 type of chewing gum, 2 types of ice cream, very hard to find coffee, milk if you wait in line at 5 am. Local fruits and vegetables easy to find and afford when in season. Most common small bribes, coffee or cigs, valuable currency lol. It's not really that people were starving but was very hard to find a lot of essential things. I suppose Cuba is kind a like that today, you can't find much in stores.

what was the song at the begining of the video?

That moment when 2 US citizens have the audacity to call extravagance and "unnecessary " rugs acquisitions to some small Europeean country. 😄😄😄 It îs almost funny.

This is the 2nd biggest place in the world after the Pentagon 👍

♥️💛💙 Brașov,the best !!! ♥️💛💙

I hope you take the message of small government back to the US. There are way too many people that are drinking the socialism coolaid over there.

Shocking you didn’t pick up some basic Romanian words like pa, or la revedere, 😂😂 which hotel did you stay at?

It's Ceausescu ( Ceaushescu) not Ceaucescu (Ceauchescu)

Locals hate that church..

Brasov, Sibiu, Sighisoara - those are amazing old medieval towns. :) Bukarest sucks compared to those. :) Trust me. Transylvania is awesome. Southern Romania not so much. It's just a big flat terrain. :)

Try going to Brasov and Cluj! Bucharest is not for tourists, trust me you haven't seen the real Romania yet!

You are such ignorants...the domes are not covered in pure gold...actually they Have nothing to do with gold... Only the colour that imitates gold...

Little content very boring.

My apologies for all the dumbazzes on here blasting you for not pronouncing certain names or words with a Latin accent or who are just plain rude. We have our own idiots... Hope you really enjoyed the visit! Thanks! 🍺🍻

children! what is that music? it is most definitely NOT romanian! bulgarian, turkish, martian?
