The People's House - Palace of Parliament
After the earthquake of 1977 Nicolae Ceauşescu ordered the "rebuilding" the city. Thus began the largest national competition for the rebuilding of Bucharest, a contest which lasted 4 years and was won by young arhirectă Anca Petrescu. It has coordinated a team made up of 200 architects and approximately 20,000 workers.
To be able to raise the imposing building was required demolition of more than 7 km ² of the old center of the capital. Among the buildings are demolished and monasteries Vacaresti, brâncovenesc Hospital, National Archives, the Republic Stadium, etc..
In the year 1983 began construction of the building and the foundation stone was placed at 25 June 1984. People for the building were used: 1,000,000 m³ marble, 5500 tons of cement, 7000 tons of steel, 20,000 tons of sand, 3500 tonnes of crystal, glass 200,000 m³, 2800 of Chandeliers, 220,000 meters of carpets, 3500 meters of skin.
Palace of Parliament, or House of the People, as the building was known before the revolution, is 270 m long, 245 m wide, 86 meters high and 92 m underground. The building has 12 levels in surface and underground yet 8, and has pursued an area of 330,000 hectares, thereby submitting the book Recordurilor on the Pentagon building after 2 and 3 in the world in terms of volume (2,550,000 m³). For comparison, it is good to know that the Parliament Palace exceed 2% of the volume pyramid keops.
The building has 1,100 rooms, of which 440 are in offices, 4 restaurants and 3 are libraries, has 2 underground parking and a concert hall.
The largest room in the palace room is Union Parliament. It was inaugurated on 22 December 1994 and was designed for large receptions that had taken place at the head of state. Carpet for this room was specially designed, containing items taken from room setting, has an area of 1100 sq meters and a weight of about 3 tons.

Hall of Human Rights has an area of 625 hectares and is fully paneled with oak different shades. Chandeliers made weighs around 2 tons and is the 2nd largest in the building.
Other rooms, as impressive are: Hall CA Rosetti, Tache Ionescu Hall, John Hall I.C. Brătianu, Room A.I Cuza, Nicolae Iorga Hall and Nicholas Hall Bălcescu.
I think though that words can not express grandoarea the palace. Worth watching!
