Make-a-Point (the people behind the <a href="http://www.inyourpocket.com/bucharest/Pantelimon-Art-Tower_122912v">Pantelimon Art Tower</a>) are organising two tours of the fascinating Pantelimon district of Bucharest. Known primarily as being a 'dormitory suburb' Pantelimon is in fact home to a number of urban landmarks not usually found on any tourist map. Indeed, the tours - organised as part of the campaign to make Bucharest a European Capital of Culture in 2021 - are aimed first and foremost at locals who want to learn more about the city in which they live.<br /> <br /> The first, on Saturday, takes in Fabrica de Parașute, Spitalul Malaxa, Parcul Sticlăriei, Facultatea de Pompieri and the Art Tower itself, while the second follows a different route: Art Tower, Parcul Florilor, Mănăstirea Mărcuța, Piata Delfinului, Ostrov.<br /> <br /> Both tours will avoid main roads as much as possible, the idea being to go behind the facade of the district and discover its hidden gems.<br /> <br /> Both tours will depart from the right hand side entrance to Costin Georgian metro station, and will last for around two hours.
