Enjoy our legendary walking tour in the cradle of Bucharest, the site of Dracula's fortress, the oldest building still standing, the most visited monument in the history of the city, the best preserved examples of old architecture, whether we are talking about inns, palaces or merchant houses. Here some of the most famous recipes of the Romanian capital were invented, in its picturesque restaurants of yesteryear, events took place that went down in legend and people learned to live for the first time huddled together, in houses that hide more than to miss. Earthquakes, fires and floods have not managed to erase the zest for life of one of the most important centers in South-Eastern Europe even today.

Every metropolis of the world also includes a city of the dead: a necropolis, but also a space of memory, a place where the deeds, works and conceits of the great personalities of a nation will be preserved for future ages. Bucharest found such a place in an older manorial garden once surrounded by vines. Once the first noble families chose to raise their tombs here, it soon became a national temple, bringing together the great names of literature, art, history, industry and every other imaginable profession. Many of these are housed under true masterpieces of architecture and sculpture, ennobled by the patina of time. A huge museum hidden in a sea of greenery, in the middle of which you get lost in past eras, forgetting about the noise of the big city, left somewhere on the edge.
