If you like to visit museums, I recommend 2 which are close to my heart:
"Grigore Antipa" National Museum of Natural History
Since I studied biology, this is my favorite museum; is interesting for kids but also for adults, you can see everything from elephants to walruses, great white sharks to butterflies.
This museum is outdoor and includes more than 300 buildings representing the history of Romania's rural architecture. Visit time around 3h, the sceneries itself is picturesque and you can stay as long as you want.
