This is a place you have to see in your lifetime. It is really like no other, with spectacular water channels, where birds find shelter. Go there early in the morning while birds are still sleeping, take time to stroll across channels, eat in family run business, it is an experience you cannot find anywhere else.

History and memories ladden Cismigiu Gardens remains unblemished over quite a few lifetimes, more exactly since the eighteen's century. Like so many other parcs in Bucharest, it is loved and cherished as one of ots green oasis where people can stroll, jog, relax on a public bench, meet someone or simply pass through. However, Cismigiu is special with its large alleys guarded by old trees, with its manicured grass and colourful flowers, with its antique rows of seats, linked to each other along some paths, between the curves bridges over the lake and the rocky mountain in its middle.

Largest Park in Bucharest, for sure one of the main attractions in the city, definitely worth a visit. Nice for talking walks down by the river, have a picnic or even get a boat ride, it also has a few nice Restaurants where you can grab something to eat, also plenty of shops where you can get toys or suvenirs.

This is the third time that I have visited Carol Park. It's a beautiful park and you can get plenty of exercise walking around. During this visit it was still considered winter and most of the trees bare. During the spring and summer the park is absolutely gorgeous with many activities. The monument is absolutely stunning. There are always guards there to protect the tomb. See the attached photos. Carol Park is one of many parks in Bucharest and one of my favorites. Check it out.

This place is like heaven on earth. The area is very quiet and offers a dream landscape. If you want to be in the middle of nature and recharge positively, here is the perfect place to relax and forget about the noise in the city.

Overall Ratings

Libearty Bear Sanctuary is the biggest brown bear sanctuary from Europeand has the largest surface in the world. Here, 75 bears found a nice home in this 5 stars welfare facility. Here you can see happy bears in their natural environment, after a bad life in circuses and zoo cages. The tours are guided by trained animal welfare experts and the visitors can see brown bears really close.

This was the highlight of my visit to Romania. It was absolutely amazing to see brown bears so close up. We watched a video at the start which was heart breaking, as it showed the treatment of the bears before they arrived at Libearty. After the video, it was even more special to see the bears outside playing. They now have loads of space to roam. There are also deer, donkeys and wolves at Liberty, though the bears are the main attraction. This isn’t a zoo so there are some rules in place for the comfort of the bears. For example, you must stay with the group at all times and be quiet. The staff were apologetic when enforcing these rules and were extremely polite. There’s a gift shop where you can adopt a bear and buy souvenirs. For such a small shop, they had a good selection to choose from (magnets, teddy bears, pens, T-shirts, etc). Note that no children under 5 are allowed. This is clearly stated on the website, but one man was very rude about it on the day when his kids were refused. This rule is for the children’s own safety and to be honest, I imagine it to be pretty distressing for them to watch the video about the treatment of the bears. I’m so glad Libearty exists and thank everyone involved for their work with the bears ????????
