A once swish hotel entrance. Bucharest.

In total contrast to the pristine appearance of Baku the area around the main railway station in Bucharest really has been let go. It looks to me as though there has been no investment since the 1989 revolution when Ceaușescu was overthrown. This hotel entrance is a good representation of the area that surrounds Bucharest Nord railway station.

 

From what I can see the centre of Bucharest is a lovely place with a great number of well presented classical buildings, but this area of the city, just a mile away seemingly hasn't been touched by developers.
