Skip the line and Exclusive visit to Palace of Parliament in Bucharest

Although shrouded in historical controversy, the building has grown to be on the top of the list for many visiting Romania. Today, the palace is open for public viewings but for security purposes, make sure you bring your passport or national ID to gain entry. The Palace of Parliament has a total of twelve stories, over a thousand rooms and four underground labyrinths, including a nuclear bunker. Take a guided tour of the nation's political hub and international conference center, also housed in the palace, and see extravagant rooms in traditional Romanian styles. Every detail has been carefully planned from the ceilings and chandeliers (one of which has over 7,000 light bulbs) to the marble and gold leaf details.
