Revolution Square

The Revolution Square in Bucharest has a complex history and is a landmark of local and national culture and history. This is where the 1989 revolution began. The statues that surround the square depict scenes from Bucharest's communist era. Around the square are the former communist party headquarters, a fascinating building with an old facade and a modern interior—a former conspiratorial house and now the headquarters of the Order of Architects in Romania. The statue of Iuliu Maniu stands in the center of the square. The Kretzulescu Church is located directly across from the former Communist Party headquarters.

What should be remembered is that Revolution Square is a tourist destination that should not be overlooked because, as previously stated, it represents the cultural and historical identity of Bucharest and the entire country. The Revolution Square is also an excellent starting point for those who want to take a comprehensive tour of Bucharest, as it is located on Calea Victoriei, just a short distance from, for example, Cişmigiu Park (which is located about 200 meters west of the market).
