In Bucharest: cords of Communism are still visible even 29 years after Romania gained independence from the brutal dictatorship of Nicolae Ceaușescu. He ordered many Romanian Gothic buildings destroyed and replaced with Soviet Bloc-style structures, some of which still show bullet holes from the revolution that led to freedom in 1989. The city today has an honest, gritty beauty—restoration is still a work in progress. #romanianhistory #bucharestoldtown #electricalwires #buchareststreetphotography #electriclines #cuttingthecord #culturetrav #easterneuropetrip #communismmemes #architecturalhistory (at Bucharest, Romania) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoSBxWAnREl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=g7agzq97akoq
