Stop At: Palace of Parliament, Strada Izvor 2-4, Bucharest 050711 Romania
Known as the largest administrative building in Europe - the Palace of the Parliament, is a monumental construction made during Romania's communist past under the command of the megalomaniac dictator Ceausescu. You will not only be shocked by the sheer size of this building, but also by the story of how it was made, which saw over 20,000 houses destroyed in the central part of Bucharest. However, it is very inspiring to discover that behind the facades of Ceausescu's new constructions, there are still a few hidden old houses as well as churches which survived the demolition frenzy. We will only see this building from outside.
