Dominated by the colossal Palace of Parliament, the Bulevardul Unirii was intended to rival Champs Elysees but is mostly interesting for its old fashioned Communist architecture.
Unirii Avenue itself was designed to offer the best possible view towards the Palace of Parliament. The latter is slightly higher, so it provides a perfect end to the wide and long Unirii Avenue: 4km long and 120m wide. On either side of the street, you can find the Centru Civic. The original name of the Bulevardul Unirii is the Boulevard of the Victory of Socialism, but it was renamed after the Romanian Revolution of 1989. Piata Unirii, a vast square more or less in the middle of Unirrii boulevard, is a major hub for public transport, as well as a shopping centre. The enormous billboards on apartment blocks around the square are another testimony to the final victory of capitalism in the Romanian capital.
