Entertainment & Activities

The world’s second largest administrative building is The Palace of the Parliament (or The People’s House) in Bucharest. The Palace of Parliament measures 330,000 m2 (~3,550,000 sq ft) and is regarded as former dictator’s, Nicolae Ceaușescu, most cherished jewel. By definition is one of the most significant sightseeing objectives in Bucharest, the capital of Romania. At the border of reason, kitsch and neoclassicism, the building reflects best what Romania underwent in the communist period. Built in a time when the people of Romania have been destitute, it has been regarded with reticence. Today one of the most visited sites in the capital.
