Free Tour Communism in Bucharest - stories & places Romania — #1
1/3

Overview of the tour in Bucharest

Everything you want to know about Romanian communism in one free tour. Almost 50 years of communism impacted Romania as a country and the life of its people. Our habits are still influenced by the communist inheritance, and you will clearly understand why after this free tour.
Find out about the communist regime and its main leader Ceausescu, how he raised to power and how he was, finally, executed for crimes against his people.
Bucharest of all cities was severely impacted by Ceausescu's decisions and his crazy dream to destroy the old city and build a new communist one, that also includes the huge Parliament building. You will have the chance to stop in a place where there was an entire neighborhood, fully demolished at the request of the glorious leader.
The tour also takes you through all the struggles of the Romanian people, from lack of basic food, heat, lack of privacy and the fear to do anything else than the Party wanted.

This activity includes:

  • Palace Hall
  • MNAC – Muzeul Național de Artă Contemporană al României
  • Izvor Park
  • Palace of Parliament
  • Cișmigiu Gardens
  • The Revolution Square Fountain
  • churches moved from their place,
  • stories of life during communism
  • relics of buildings affected by communism
  • The former Royal Palace
