Explore Bucharest differently! Our capital is much more than the Old Town and palaces. It is a vibrant city, hiding gems behind the main streets like urban art, creative local initiatives and reinvented little corners with a social mission. Our local guide will not just take you to these hidden spots but will also share their story and explain the encrypted messages of current political and social situations on the ARTivism scene. Take the unbeaten paths to discover Bucharest of today and to understand the real life that the street artist expresses more and more.
