Description

Uncover the secrets of the city, urban legends and the horror stories of some characters burried in the Bellu Cemetery (including the story of the family that claimed they are the followers of Dracula).

The tour includes impressive murals painted by Romanian or foreign artists and a nice walk through parts of old neighbourhoods, such as the Armenian or the Jewish, while learning how Holocaust and communism impacted the Jewish population.

Take the metro to Bellu, where the guide will tell you about the mysterious grave of Iulia Hasdeu (a child prodigy that spoke from the underworld with her father), the story of a brother and sister getting married by mistake, or the one of a secret lover (see their monumental statues).
