  1. It’s almost like… watching a film reenactment of the era.

  2. I miss old architecture 🙁 I know many of those older tenement buildings weren’t always very comfortable in the modern sense of the word, but damn the façades are just astonishing. Such districts in many cities, not only Paris, to this day generate a lot of tourism; I simply have no idea why there’s no going back to this style but everything has to be a dull modernist rectangle nowadays.

  3. I may be self-centered, but as a Parisian a lot of those streets and buildings looks like Paris. If it wasn’t for the title and the language on signs, I would not have known otherwise.

    Is Bucharest still looking like this or as ww2 completely destroyed the city ?
