Sunrise from the 10th Floor

Bucharest, Romania

Bucharest has some lovely French neoclassical buildings, many in a sad state of repair like this one across the road from the hotel.
Some are being restored but many are being torn down and replaced with concrete boxes. It would be fun to see inside some of these great houses.
I ended the day at a cocktail reception hosted by the British Ambassador at his residence in a lovely restored villa, like this one could be.

And last year I was pushing buttons.

An interesting view, and such a beautiful old city. Hope you had time for some street shots, Bill.

It will be such a loss...no tourist want's to visit modern for at least another couple of centuries at least !!

Great viewpoint. It is so sad that the older buildings are torn down. I thought this was only an American thing, I do like looking out over the city. V.

This sunrise view makes it look like quite a nice city, different from what I had imagined.
