Itinerary
Day 1. Chișinău – Bucharest (approx. 470 km)
Meeting with the accompanying guide at 22:30, Circus Parking in Chișinău for boarding the bus. Departure at 23:00 on the route: Chișinău – Bucharest.
 
Day 2. Bucharest
Arrival in Bucharest. We will visit the following tourist attractions:

The Kilometer Zero Monument located in the center of Bucharest, designed by architect Octav Doicescu in collaboration with sculptor Constantin Baraschi in 1936. The monument at Kilometer 0 is a basin in the center of which is a wind rose, between the rays of which are engraved the names of the main historical Romanian provinces: Transylvania, Banat, Bessarabia, Bukovina, Dobruja, Moldova, Muntenia, and Oltenia. What we see today is not the original shape of the monument but a partial remake, meaning only the bottom of the basin and the wind rose corresponds to the original. In the center of the rose is placed a sphere encircled witha belt depicting the zodiac signs, and on the stone sides of the basin in which the rose is slightly submerged, the names of some cities in Romania and the distances, starting from Kilometer 0 to them, are carved. Among the cities whose names are engraved on it are Chișinău, Orhei, Tighina, as well as Silistra and Bazargic (now Dobrich) in Bulgaria, which were part of Greater Romania from 1913 to 1940.
 

The Historical Old Center is part of the Civic Center district. Here, you can find the Old Court, Manuc's Inn, the Stavropoleos and St. Anton churches, as well as numerous other old buildings declared historical monuments. In the historic center, in the St. George's New Church Square, the official Kilometer Zero is located. In addition to the green space offered by St. George's Park created around the "St. George Nou" Church, there is also Colțea Park, where the Broken Violin Fountain is located.
  

CEC Palace was built on the site of the old "St. John the Great" church. CEC as an institution was established in 1864 by a law initiated by Alexandru Ioan Cuza. The cornerstone of CEC Palace was laid on July 8, 1897, in the presence of King Carol I of Romania and Queen Elisabeth. Designed by architect Paul Gottereau, with specific elements from French architecture at the end of the 19th century, CEC Palace was completed in 1900, becoming a true symbol of Victory Avenue.
  

Palace of the Parliament (exterior) measures 270 m by 240 m, 84 m in height, and 92 m underground, built in the spirit of socialist realist architecture. It has 9 levels above ground and another 9 underground. According to the World Records Academy, the Palace of Parliament is the third-largest administrative building for civilian use in the world by surface area, the most expensive administrative building in the world, and the heaviest building in the world.
  

Constitution Square faces the Palace of Parliament. It is one of the best places for concerts and parades in Bucharest. The square is also used for organizing the New Year's Eve party and hosting military parades on Romania's National Day.
  

Union Square, one of the best-known places in the Capital, is named after the Small Union of 1859. On January 24, 1959, on the 100th anniversary of the Union accomplished by Alexandru Ioan Cuza between Wallachia and Moldova, the largest intersection in Bucharest became "Union Square." Previously, it had been called March 28 Square (in 1948 on this date, the first elections for the Great National Assembly took place), Great Square of Bucharest (in the 19th century), Nation Square (during the Great Union of 1918), and September 6 Square (King Michael ascended the throne on this day in 1940).
  

The Arch of Triumph in Bucharest is a monument designed by Petre Antonescu. It was built in 1921-1922, renovated in 1935-1936, and again renovated starting in 2014. It commemorates Romania's participation in World War I.
  

The National Village Museum was inaugurated on May 10, 1936, in the presence of King Carol II of Romania and for the public on May 17, 1936, being currently one of the biggest tourist attractions in Bucharest. The motivation for setting up the museum was the importance of the village in Romania's culture, a country where, even at the beginning of the 20th century, long after the Industrial Revolution, most of the population lived in rural areas. Throughout its history, the museum has been damaged, in the years of the Second World War by the presence of refugees from Bessarabia, then in 1997 and 2002 by two fires, but it continued to expand its exhibits, the most recent wing of the museum being opened in 2016.
