Named after King Carol I of Romania, this park, designed by a French landscape architect, offers lush vegetation and panoramic views of Bucharest. You can find plenty of open-air concerts in the summer at Arenele Romane, or simply enjoy the fresh air and green spaces at any time of year. The park also includes several monuments, such as a Mausoleum, the Cantacuzino Fountain built in 1870 and Fântâna Minelor și Carierelor fountain completed in 1906. The Giants' Statues and the Zodiac Fountain can also be found here. The Technical Museum is a great place to explore Romanian history of technology.

Now the city's main cathedral, it was built among a bit of controversy in the mid-20th century, as it replaced the original city church on Parque Vidal. It is home to a white statue of the Virgin Mary which was mysteriously lost for several decades, only to be found in a ditch and finally returned.

This Victorian museum, housed in five 17th-century cottages below the Castle, depicts Nottingham’s social history over the last 300 years. Do not miss the opportunity to go inside the man-made caves inside the Castle Rock.
