After walking around the city centre of Bucharest, you might need a break. Lucky you, because Cismigiu gardens is right next door - it is a destination in itself.
The architect of the park, Viennese Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Meyer, fell in love with the city, had a relationship with an army commander and died in the city at a young age. Trees were taken from other parts of Romania and planted in the park, it held a small zoo, and it soon became an important place for the inhabitants of Bucharest to meet. Cismigiu Gardens was the place to go for a stroll, for a moment of peace, for a chat with friends, or - inevitably - for lovers. The size of the park, 17 hectares, means it is big enough to hide, yet small enough to walk through. The park is littered with statues, for famous Romanian cultural persons, for French soldiers killed in action in Romania during the First World War, and others.
