The Journey
Palace of the Parliament
The Palace of the Parliament, formerly known as the Casa Republicii (House of the Republic), stands as a monumental symbol of Romania's Communist era. Conceived by Nicolae Ceaușescu and built starting in 1984, this colossal structure was designed to house ministries, Communist party offices, and apartments for high-ranking officials. Situated on what was deemed the city's safest ground against earthquakes, the palace boasts twelve stories, four underground levels (including a nuclear bunker), and an interior lavishly decorated with local materials like marble, crystal, carpets, and stucco, all crafted by Romanian artisans. A tour offers a glimpse into the building's most significant spaces, including conference halls, the grand staircase, expansive hallways, and galleries. While the balcony offering panoramic views of the main square is not currently accessible, the sheer scale and ornate detail of the Palace provide an unparalleled insight into the ambition and excess of the Communist regime. It is a controversial landmark admired and loathed but nevertheless, a must-see.
