Ploiești is a city in southern Romania, located 56km north of Bucharest in the Prahova County. With a population of around 180,540, it’s the tenth-largest city in the country and a key regional hub. Historically part of Muntenia, Ploiești developed from the 17th century, growing significantly with the rise of its oil industry.
Known as “the Capital of Black Gold,” Ploiești’s economy remains heavily influenced by oil processing, with three major refineries operating in the area. Beyond industry, the city serves as a vital transport link connecting Bucharest with Transylvania and Moldavia, and provides easy access to the Prahova Valley – a popular alpine tourism destination. Expect a practical, working-city vibe with a strong industrial heritage.
