Arcul de Triumf Stadium <\/h4>

Built on the site of the old stadium, the new Arc de Triumf stadium was inaugurated in 2021, more precisely on July 3, when 4,400 people watched from the stands the rugby match between Romania and Argentina, which ended 17-24. Being a multi-purpose stadium, it also hosted the football matches of the European Youth Championship in 2021. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Arcul de Triumf <\/h4>

It was built by Petre Antonescu between 1921-1922 to celebrate Romania's victory in World War I and the coronation of King Ferdinand. Its current form, similar to that of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, was given to it during the monument's renovation between 1935-1936. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Victoriei Square<\/h4>

It received this name since 1878. During the Second World War it was heavily bombed, its restoration being carried out under the communist regime. Today it is best known for hosting the Romanian Government (the construction of this building began in 1937 and was completed in 1950), but also for the protests that have taken place here over time.

Romanian Athenaeum<\/h4>

It was inaugurated in 1888 and is the largest concert hall in Romania, hosting the George Enescu Philharmonic and the festival of the same name. The design of the building was made by a French architect and, although it was inaugurated in 1888, the final construction was completed in 1897. In the first stage of construction, the Romanian Athenaeum was built with money raised through public collections, the famous motto \"Give a leu for the Athenaeum\" being still known today, put into practice following the organization of a national lottery in which 500,000 tickets worth 1 leu were put on sale. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
