Bucharest is a city of contrasting architecture. Massive, concrete blocks from the communist period stand alongside Art Nouveau buildings and villas. This blend creates an urban landscape that reflects both 20th-century political influence and the earlier, more decorative European aesthetics.
One of the most striking symbols of this contrast is the Palace of the Parliament, one of the largest administrative buildings in the world, so vast that it required entire neighborhoods to be demolished for its construction under Nicolae Ceausescu.
