Three centuries of history at the official residence of the president of Romania
The experience
Three centuries of royalty are waiting to be explored at Cotroceni Palace, which is now the official residence of the president of Romania. As a relatively hidden gem, a visit here is essential in Bucharest, but you must book ahead.
Wander the magnificent hallways with your guide. See the bedrooms of kings and queens, plus children's bedrooms, a music hall including a grand old piano, and the king's office.
Don't miss a stroll through the gardens. You might catch the president in action!
