Mention Bucharest and the image it usually conjures up is either Communist-gritty or the over-the-top dictator style of Nicolae Ceaușescu. But walking around Bucharest tells a different story. Block after block turns out stunning pieces of architecture in styles including Art Nouveau, Neo-Romanian, French Second Empire, and Art Deco.
