ROMANIA

this gallery is in preparation ... here is a preview ... romania is a country in south-eastern europe, east of hungary and north of bulgaria, bordering on the black sea. about 2000 years ago the kingdom dacia florished, which soon became part of the roman empire. modern romania is independent since the fall of the soviet union in 1989.
since 1862, the capital is bucharest, the by far largest city in romania. it is full of imposing buildings - its eclectic architecture includes traditional, classical and neo-classical, 'communist' and modern styles, even some art deco. the palace of the parliament is europe's largest building, a somewhat absurd outcome of the communist era. because of the countless cafes and restaurants and pubs, for a while bucharest was nicknamed "little paris". in this preview,
only one segment is presented: beside the famous national theatre, named "caragiale" (currently in renovation) is a little park full of amazing modern sculptures which were created by ioan bolborea in 2010 and are devoted to romania’s favourite playwright, ion luca caragiale, and his main characters. some of these very dynamic figures are shown below.
