Bucharest

Bucharest is Romania’s capital and largest city, a dynamic hub with a population of 1.71 million. Situated on the Dâmbovița River, the city functions as the country’s political, economic, and cultural centre. Historically known as “Little Paris” for its elegant architecture, Bucharest presents a unique blend of styles – from Neoclassical and Art Nouveau to Bauhaus and imposing socialist-era structures.

Today, Bucharest is experiencing a significant economic and cultural revival, rapidly becoming a European high-tech hotspot. While its historic centre bears the marks of past conflicts and urban planning, ongoing renovation efforts are preserving its character. The city is administratively structured as a municipality with six sectors, offering a diverse and evolving environment for those seeking a vibrant, affordable base.
