Bucharest, Romania: A fascinating tour inside the world’s largest parliament building - the Romanian Palace of Parliament built under the rule of former dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu.

This parliament building in Bucharest Romania is a historical and spectacular place, no expense was spared in its construction and although groundbreaking was undertaken in the 1980’s it wasn’t properly finished until 1997, many years after the reign of Nicolae Ceaușescu was over.
It's the second largest administration building on the planet, has a value of over 3 billion US Dollars and features over 3,500 tonnes of crystal, some of which is displayed in its 480 chandeliers. Inside the architecture and design emulate a palace more than a parliament and it’s certainly a sight to behold - whether looking at the Grand Hall, the majestic entranceways or the theatre contained within.
I popped in to enquire about tickets and ended up getting a place on the last tour of the day. The cost was fair but I’d recommend booking ahead if you want to take the same tour - you might not be as lucky with availability as I was. This is one of the most impressive buildings in Romania both inside and out - these days it’s way too big for its purpose but it stands in central Bucharest as a reminder of times gone by.
