   Hi Hardy,Thank you for your comment. The memorial area, just in front of the Ministry for Internal Affairs, is delimited by the following streets:Anghel Saligni, Mihai Voda, Brezoianu, Lipscani.Regarding the soldiers: no mockery, but just acted reverence, playing/exercising the role of President Traian Basescu for next day’s inauguration ceremony.BTW: 30 trees have been moved from there, 1 tree per 10,000 murdered Jews.

   Thank you, Edgar, our best “rasender Reporter” !For everyone who wants to see the place ,look at this bird’s eye map of Bucarest. Pan the map to the W, all along the Lipscani street until it meets the River Dimbovita. There you’ll find the green square as it looked before they built the memorial.
