Bucharest is the most lush, sweet and pleasing-to-the-eye city I’ve visited and the best 
part is that nobody “knows” about it. What I mean is that you don’t hear many people talking about their planned trip to Bucharest or other parts of Romania. The lack of hordes of tourists is what makes this city even more fun to visit. There is no standing in line for two hours to visit the Eiffel Tower, the London Eye or to catch a glimpse of the astronomical clock tower in Prague.

There are some lines in the peak times July-August, but really they are bearable compared to other European cities. Just remember to pack light clothing. Its HOT there.

It is indeed a very cool city. The only place I have been to in Romania however and I am told the rest of the country feels very different and much less metropolitan.
In winter the city felt like a picture postcard with the snow covered churches like this one.

I live in Bucharest. it is indeed a great city, but a very busy one (it’s the capital of Romania…of course it’s a busy city :D). During the winter is not that pleasant, but in the spring or summer is a great city to visit.

Bucharest is great, visit the museum of architecture on the edge of town. Budapest in Hungary is very lovely too, visit the Gellert baths there and opera house and much more.

Thanks for the advice! I’m travelling through eastern Europe (currently in Kraków). I wasn’t sure whether to visit Romania but this post makes me want to go! If you like places that are off the tourist trail, you should check out Toruń in Poland.

Lovely review of your visit to Bucharest. I’m Romanian but living 8h away from Bucharest so this summer was the 1st time I visited it. Great to hear good things about the city from a foreign tourist. PS: I found “Caru cu Bere” an AMAZING place & next time you should also visit ” Hanu lui Manuc”
