The city: Bucharest
Bucharest is the capital city and industrial and commercial centre of Romania. It
is located in the southeast of the country and lies on the banks of the
Dambovita River. It is laden with historical charm from the streets of
the Old City Center, to the grand architecture of the Royal Palace and
the lush green of Cismigiu Park. In the period between the two World
Wars, the city’s elegant architecture and the sophistication of its
elite earned Bucharest the nickname Paris of the East or Little
Paris. The city also claims a large number of museums, art
galleries, exquisite Orthodox churches and unique architectural sites. |
