The capital of Romania is one of the great unknown of Europe, but increasingly, one of the most interesting and attractive tourist destinations of the continent, for its great beauty, an interesting social life and a wide cultural offer. Located in the Muntenia region - on the banks of the Dâmbovița river - in the southeast of the country, this city has ample green areas and an interesting heritage that is worth visiting. A city without a large population - which barely reaches two million inhabitants - and a pleasant climate throughout the year, makes it easy to enjoy this interesting city, perfect for planning a tourist getaway of a few days.
Apart from the atmosphere, the museums and the heritage of the "small Parisian", the visit to the city implies discovering its gastronomy, really varied and especially recommendable. Dishes as recommended as rice wrapped in cabbage "Sarmale", the typical Romanian sausages "Mititei", traditional mash or "Mamaliga", or traditional skewers "Frigarui"
The Romanian city has a large number of very interesting places, especially recommended for tourists who are approaching this European destination for the first time. One of the best ways to discover this city is to choose the free walking tour in Bucharest, which runs through the most important places to see such as the Curtea Veche Palace “Corte Vieja”, the megalomano and neoclassical Palace of the Parliament of the communist stage, the recommended Bulevardul Unirii or the Stavropoleos Monastery. Other points of great interest in the city are the Cathedral and Patriarchal Palace, the Carturesti bookstore, the University Square or the Sfantul Anton church. Enjoying the city's nightlife means approaching the Lipscani neighborhood, full of small venues with a great atmosphere. Herastrau Park and Cismigiu Park, as well as the Bellu Cemetery, complete the interesting offer of interesting sites to see in the Romanian city. Free tours in Bucharest are an excellent option for people who want to know the city for the first time, visiting the most important points and discovering the wonders of this great European city.
