@Duster13375 Bucharest isn't meant for tourism. It's the capital, and home to corrupt politicians, sketchy casinos and clubs, communist blocs, horrendous traffic, congestion, and out of place glass office buildings between the communist buildings. It's the financial capital, so everyone is uptight and always in a rush. Its not a bad or dangerous city (its not baghdad or anything), but theres nothing there for tourists. The nightlife is good though, awesome bars, restaurants and clubs.

@Duster13375 I know what you mean. that is why i try to get videos from "other" parts of europe for my US fans. Not just UK and France. I actually am only going to be filming my first france videos this summer after years of doing this. so kind of funny. cool to hear about your travels! keep it up!

@woltersworld I'm also taking a bus trip to London and Paris and possibly Amsterdam. Last year I went with some family members on a road trip through Central Europe and it was fun. I hate it how in America people think that either a) Britain and France are the only places worth seeing in Europe and the rest of the continent is poor villages or b) don't know what Europe is other than Britain or France.

@woltersworld Thanks

@Duster13375 yeah transylvania is actually really great. i did love up in brasov and sibiu and sigasora. really neat to see. and they have been gettting good subsidies to rebuild historic sites so that sounds like a cool trip (bucharest is in the south so you really dont need to go there, just head to transylvania)
have a great trip!

@woltersworld Thanks. The Ukraine trip will go to L'viv and surrounding Polish castles, such as Khotyn and Kamenets Podolsky, and the Romania trip will go to the capital and the castles of Transylvania,, but I will probably take the Romania trip because apparently Ukraine isn't safe for tourists.

@Duster13375 Its not horrible, i just felt there were better cities to check out first. The peasant museum in bucharest is really great and there is a park that has building from all over romania in it, and that is one of the coolest open air museums i have ever been too. unfortunatley the city was "redone" by the former and now shot president who leveled a lot of the beauty to make way for cement cement and a bit more cement. though it is actually worht a look

@woltersworld I'm picking between visiting Romania and western Ukraine. Why is Bucharest so bad?
You forgot Ljubljana (Slovenia) and Istanbul

@epicureabovarista I kind of limited eastern europe to behind the iron curtain... and former yugoslavia was a whole other "thing" and istanbul is turkey so different too. but yeah if i included those two country then those two places would definately be on the list :)
