Maybe one of the most beautiful buildings I’ve ever seen. The heaviest in the world I hear, too.

If you're making summer travel plans, don't sleep on a two or three day visit to Bucharest (my new home)!
The city has so much to offer in terms of food and cultural activities.
Europe's largest wellness spa--Therme Bucharest--is well worth a trip to Romania in itself.
