Romania’s capital, Bucharest, is an exciting place to be right now. It’s booming – with large, modern infrastructure projects steadily changing the face of the historic old city.

Stroll the streets then, and you can find a centuries-old church sharing city space with ultra-modern office buildings and Communist-era apartment blocks – promising one of the most vast and varied architectural landscapes in Europe. This isn’t a place suffering an identity crisis though – far from it. Bucharest is sophisticated, trendy, cool and confident – with something for everyone to write home about.
