Bucharest -its beautiful face






Two photots - 69 years apart ...
Since I was a child, these is one face of the city I had been in love with...And I love it even with it was the sad, tired face of a city that was fortelling a half century of war, Soviet occupation and communism scaring...

Juliet,

I am always hapy to find colorful pictures of the city :)
I like how it stresses the contrast between the face of the city in the war years and the same face during peace years...One more reason to avoid wars...

What a beautiful city. The architecture is amazing. I am also struck by the contrasts.
