About this audio guide
This guide to Hanul cu Tei, the Linden Tree Inn on Lipscani in Bucharest, follows the merchant partners who raised it in 1833 and the deal they struck over its shops and storerooms. It drops into the working day of the traders and travelling merchants who used the courtyard, and the iron shutters and stone posts that guarded it. Listen from inside the alley, between the two gates.
