Nice virtual presentation of the most beautiful building in Bucharest

The Romanian Athenaeum, located in Bucharest, was inaugurated 136 years ago, on February 14th, 1888. It stands as an architectural masterpiece and a symbol of Romanian culture and heritage. Throughout its existence, the Athenaeum has been a center for various cultural events, including concerts, performances, and exhibitions.

Filarmonica "George Enescu" has created a beautiful virtual tour of the venue that will host the recitals and the finals of this year's George Enescu International Competition.

Magiun de Prune Topoloveni 🇷🇴 is the best fruit product in the world in 2023. View complete TasteAtlas Awards 23/24 lists: www.tasteatlas.com/best/foods-by-category

Magiun de Prune Topoloveni is a concentrated spread with a shiny surface made in the town of Topoloveni and the surrounding villages, from local, fully ripe, top-quality dark plums which are boiled over for a long time during the concentration phase.

The plums contain high amounts of carbohydrates, natural sugar, and vitamin C because of their ripeness. The only ingredient in the product is the plum, and although it may seem that the plum skins are missing from the jam, they are incorporated into it in order not to lose precious nutrients, fibre and vitamins.

Local artist Cristian Scutaru has been busy painting public schools & kindergardens in Sector 2 of Bucharest. And I love to see it. I wish when I was growing up schools looked this pretty.
