The Dimitrie Gusti National Village Museum is an outdoor exhibition of houses and annexes, entered through the gates on Kiseleff Road. You can simply turn up: booking is only needed if you want a guide, and guided tours are offered in Romanian, English, Russian and French. Preschool children get in free, and pupils pay a reduced rate with proof of their status for the current year.

The trade-off is in the week’s rhythm. Mondays and Tuesdays are half price, but that is because most of the houses are closed on those days, along with the temporary exhibition halls. Come from Wednesday to Sunday if going inside the houses is the point of the trip. The ticket is valid for a single entry, so plan the visit as one stretch rather than popping out and back.
