Cotroceni Palace: 

The tournament hall is situated in the Cotroceni Palace, Bucharest, which is the residence of the President of Roumania - a symbol of appreciation and high respect to our beautiful sport.

Cotroceni Palace

Situated in a superb garden, the Cotroceni Palace presents the architectural design of a distinct unity. Built around a monastery constructed by Şerban Cantacuzino at the end of the 17th century, the whole construction reflects 3 centuries of Romanian history.
Built between 1893 and 1895 by the French architect Paul Gotreau, and then expanded further in the 20th century, Cotroceni palace reveals its sumptuousness from its very entrance. 
Throughout the years, the elegant studies have represented the place of some important decisions taken by great personalities of Romanian history. Even today, Cotroceni Palace represents the premises of Romania’s Presidency.

I hope more and more women tournaments will be organized. We usually fight until the very end, we don't really know what a "draw" means, a lot of passion and emotions can be seen on the boards...a very interesting chess and psychological battle that shouldn't be missed! 
Good luck to all participants and a beautiful spring to all of you!
