One of the most beautiful cultural attractions in Bucharest, the Village Museum is a vast open-air museum, one of the first in the world of this kind. The museum has hundreds of traditional houses and authentic elements of rural life from all the regions of Romania, and is located in Herastrau, the largest park in Bucharest.
Storck Museum A small and more local attraction, this museum is, nonetheless, one of the most charming in Bucharest. Located in the original house of the Storck family, the museum displays their works of art: the sculptures of Carol Storck and Frederick Stork and the paintings of Cecilia Cutescu-Storck. They were some of the most representative artists of their generations, their creations being fundamental for their time.
The Museum George Enescu A visit at the museum dedicated to the life of George Enescu, Romania's most important musician of all times, is a must for a cultural tour. The museum is located in the splendid Cantacuzino Palace, a majestic monument built by the richest Romanian from the early 20th century.
The Atheneum One of the most famous monuments in the capital, the Atheneum is an impressive construction, 41 meters tall with six 12 meters long columns. The Atheneum survived the bombing of 1944 and the communist censure when its splendid interior frescoes from the main concert hall that recreate in images the history of Romania were covered for decades.
Old Churches Along the itinerary, you'll see some of the oldest churches in Bucharest: Kretzulescu, Stavropoleos, Coltea, Spiridon, Radu Voda, the Patriarchy. You'll find out interesting facts about their history, state of the art paintings and precious religious objects. As most of them are located in the historical center, you'll also have the chance to see other landmarks like the Revolution and University Squares.
