First we have to set some visiting rules.
We have to stay together and form one tight group because this is
an administrative building.
If you have any questions during this tour please let me know
and if I know the answer I will tell it to you.
OK. Now let's wait for them to pass,
and after that we will go into that room,
and please watch your steps in the middle of the hallway
because there is a tiny obstacle in there.
Very fast, please. Follow me, guys. Fast, fast.

BELL RINGS
In here, we have over 1,000 rooms.
440 of them are offices.
More than 30 are salons, restaurants, conference halls,
and the rest are auxiliary spaces.
Do you have any questions?
No questions. Let's go upstairs.
In this building, we will find a lot of architectural styles.
The architects wanted to keep something traditional
for our country. OK?
Let's continue.
TRANSLATED LYRICS:
Most of the curtains in this building are handmade in Sighisoara,
in the central part of Romania.
In here, we have over 2,800 chandeliers.
All of them are made of crystal from Medias,
a city in the central part of Romania,
and those chandeliers used more than 3,500 tonnes of this material,
and they say that if we will turn on all the lights in this building
the bill would be as for a city with a population of 20,000 citizens.
CHANTING
Wait, wait!
Smile.
Oops.
This is the third part of the hallway.
It is similar to the first one,
but in here we have something different -
all these images - but unfortunately they are not paintings -
they are only posters,
because in early 2000 in this building was shot a film -
Amen was the name.
The directors wanted to shoot it at The Vatican, but maybe they were not
allowed to do it and they chose this palace to resemble it,
and these are only souvenirs from that -
they have nothing to do with this building.
OK?
Do you want to take five minutes
break for the toilet now? Yes?
The toilet is downstairs for both men and women.
They are separated in there.
Unfortunately we will have to wait a few moments because they say
that until 11 o'clock we are not allowed
to pass through the gallery of honour, OK?
Let's go.
Ladies and gentlemen, now we are walking
along the main gallery in the palace.
That is the gallery of honour here,
which measures 150 metres long
and 80 metres wide here in the centre.
There are 34 panels on this gallery surrounding the area.
These columns are made of marble.
Do you know what this symbol is?
This is the plan of the building,
with the four bodies - the hallways - in interior gardens.
Do you know where we are in this moment?
Somewhere in here.
OK?
Let's go to the next one.
I hope that you enjoyed this tour
and thank you very much for your attention.
Now, let's go back and get your documents
and change over your badges, OK? Thank you again.
