Wednesday's walk happened on Sunday

in Wednesday Walk5 days ago (edited)

This time, Wednesday's walk happened on Sunday. I try to have at least one walk every day, but not all of them are worth telling; most are boring and repetitive, and most happen in the same places. What makes them different is the place where they occur.

I used to walk daily in the nearby park without seeing anything new to tell stories about, but I don't do that anymore. Instead, I always find something new to photograph when I walk in the city center on the same streets.

A long time ago, I saw a movie made in Georgia(a former Soviet republic where Stalin was born) called Repentance.

In the movie, a character asks for a street with a church at its end. The interlocutor is surprised by this question and asks why a church should exist.

The answer was: What good is a road that doesn't lead to a church?

Don't think this is a plea for religion; it is not. I wanted to discuss my Sunday walks, during which I accompany my wife to a church, a historical monument, and a 300-year-old monastery, Stavropoleos.

I usually write about walks in the order in which they happen. The Stavropolos monastery church was always the end of the walk. Now it will be different; I'll start with the end!


I'm only attempting to provide some information about the pictures chosen to illustrate this walk.


Stavropoleos Monastery Basilica, the History Museum of Romania, the CEC Palace (at the end of the street), the National Bank building, and the Dacia Palace (the structure that hosts the Art Safari exhibitions).

The narrowest street in Bucharest, with shops, cafes and the "Little Paris" Museum

Lipscani Street in the historic center of Bucharest, with rain and cold at the end of winter, is adapted to protect tourists eager to sit on a terrace.

Coffee after...the walk. This is the reward I'm drawn to every Sunday to stroll through this downtown spot.

Return home through University Square.

Spring has come and pushed winter back. Florists celebrate with gorgeous blooms.

*I always start with photos when I want to write a blog. Photos remind me of places, events, and feelings that turn into words.

Since we all love photography, let’s explore the captivating details captured in these photos!

A wise saying goes that a photograph is worth a thousand words, but I don't think so..

It depends on the viewer.


Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that; otherwise, you may miss.

Wednesday Walk, every Wednesday, like this one today.This is one of the recommendations made by @tattoodjay for those who prefer walking and are used to sharing impressions and photos in his community,

Soon winter will be gone, I told you... what a beauty the first image, I love it, it's like one of those postcards that used to be sent by letter, beautiful! I love tulips and I'm glad the florists are already celebrating spring. Hugs!

Yes, we are starting to enjoy spring. The rebirth of our hopes. Thank you!
