My roommates and I decided to spend the weekend in Bucharest.

Already knowing the city, I tried to do my best to show them the

most beautiful places of the city. Yes, but the problem is that

I'm not the best guide, and except the main tourist atractions,

shops and coffee, I don't know so much about the history of Bucharest.

To solve this problem, we decided to take part in a free guided

walking tour.

During two and a half hours we benefited from detailed explanations

of a guide and visited the old city center. We discovered a lot of

Lipscani, The 17th century hostel Hanul lui Manuc, the famous

restaurant Caru cu bere, the beautiful church Stravropoleos, etc...

And why I call my article "The stick potato of Bucarest"?

Because the guided tour ended at Piata Revolutiei, in front of a

statue ... who left us perplex.

It's a memorial for the people killed during the revolution of 1989,

and this in the form of a marble obelisk on which is planted an iron

structure.

This work is apparently one of the most controversial of the capital

and the inhabitant of Bucarest call it "the potato on a stick"

This is probably the anecdote that struck us the most with my

roommates. We laughed all the night!
