    Construction of Romania`s most famous building began in 1984. The Palace of the Parliament is the heaviest building in the world and world's third-largest administrative building.For comparison, it can be mentioned that the building exceeds by 2% the volume of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and therefore it is labeled as a "pharaonic" construction. Admire the exterior of this massive building and hear it`s story.
