Notice to laggards: Romania last minute



La leggenda vuole che Bucarest sia stata fondata dal pastore Bucur, il cui nome in sostanza significa gioia e piacere. E, in un certo senso, the city hosts a truly epicurean lifestyle, with its cafes and nightclubs crowded until late at night in winter, and the bars and outdoor concerts on warm summer evenings. Oriental charm, Latin hospitality of its inhabitants and convenience of euro-you make it an ideal destination for a possible last minute holiday.

Reach the Romanian capital is simple: there are cheap flights from Bari, Naples and Rome. For accommodation, there is something for every budget. From the sumptuous luxury hotel in the center (including the Intercontinental, a place where the historic capital under Ceausescu operated a thriving black market run by the intelligence services) to the hotels where the cheapest, at 20-30 euro per night, you can find a clean and comfortable. For young people, I recommend relying on couchsurfing.com , virtual community of people who exchange for free accommodation and in Bucharest is very fed .

For meals, the choice is virtually unlimited. Restaurants at every street corner, medium-high quality and low prices. A must is the Caru cu Bere. Its atmosphere and décor early twentieth century, the beer hand, the excellent traditional food - meat dishes, soups and delicious desserts - transform the experience in a short time that it catapults you into the 'Paris of the East' of the '20s and '30s. The restaurant is located in one of the oldest and most beautiful of Bucharest, the district Lipscani, once a major trading center, now condensed bohemian clubs and bars. Nearby, a stone's throw from the university , on the roof of the National Theatre, is home to one of the most famous clubs in the city: the Motoare. Framed by the clear summer sky, with murals and looks that are busy in conversations without end, is Motoare the perfect place to enjoy the aspirations and frustrations of the students in Bucharest.

A walk from Parliament until Unirii Square, the building designed by mastodintica Ceau Ş escu, going over what was once called the Victory of Socialism Boulevard, surely will disappear the last traces of nostalgia in even the Orthodox supporters of Marx & Co. A visit inside the building is an option, but the building also houses the Museum of Contemporary Art, home of innovative exhibitions, I prefer the more classic tour inside the palace.

The people like to spend in Bucharest the weekend in the parks: the most beautiful There Ş migiu, built in 1847, the oldest of the capital, and Herastrau, within which is located Village Museum, reconstruction of housing, customs and traditions of rural Romania. The museum is located, more or less every month, a craft fair, where you can buy from the other icons and other objects isprati the Orthodox tradition. And by the way, the city has lots of places of worship. The highlights include the Church of the Old Princely Court and the Mic Eleutherios small, located in one of the most beautiful cities, Cotroceni, which is built around the current home of the president.

just 3-4 hours by train and arrive in the land of Dracula, Transylvania. There, between the mountains and virgin forests, you can visit some charming medieval towns, including Bra ov Ş, Ş Sigh Timisoara, Sinaia and Sibiu (European Capital of Culture in 2007), and of course the castle of Bran, the whose name is inextricably linked to that of the world's most famous vampire. Sleeping in one of the many farmhouses, castles and walking in and around city centers, you can easily meet Italian tourists, as Transylvania is one of the usual steps for compatriots who twill beyond the Balkans. So hurry up, Romania is waiting for you.
