My January trip: Bucarest, Varna and Sofia
Hi everyone.
Almost a year has passed since I posted here last time, and I regret not doing it, because I really love this platform.
Anyway, last month I was able to snatch a week for traveling, and I did it. My itinerary was Pisa/Bucarest (airplane), Bucarest/Varna (van), Varna/Sofia (train), Sofia/Bergamo (airplane)and Bergamo/Pisa (train).
This time, instead of taking a ton of pictures as I used, I decided to make videos.
It was my first time in Bucarest.
It's really a beautiful city but I found its boulevards a bit overwhelming, too longs and roo wide for my taste.
I visited the Palace of Parlament. For some reason I am not able to embed the video directly, so I posted it here:
The place it's huge, is the secon largest public building in the world, surpassed only by the Pentagon.
In a couple of hours of guided tour, we were able to see only 7% of the building.
Anyway, what I really loved in Bucarest was the Old Town, what's left after Ceausescu demolitions: tody it's a primary tourist spot, full of restaurants and clubs:
After Bucarest I went to Varna, Bulgaria, a lovely seaside city on the Black Sea:
I was there a couple of days and I really enjoyed the place.
Finally, I went to Sofia. I have been there several times, so I will write about Sofia in some other post.
Here, I want hust to post a video about the travel, which I did with a night train: the train looked rundown from the outside but inside was new, clean and comfortable. Besides, it was quite cheap as well: only 23 Euros for sole occupancy of a 3 people cabin, for an 8 hours travel.
I really enjoyed this travel, it was a well needed break from my routine.
