Alberghi a Bucarest

Bucharest is the capital of Romania, as well as the country’s biggest city and most important commercial centre. It is located on the Dambovita River and in a region full of many lakes. According to legend, the city was named after a shepherd boy called Bucur who founded a church here and enchanted people with his beautiful flute playing. There are at least 2 million people now living in Bucharest, with another half a million more in the greater urban area. Bucharest has changed a lot over the course of its history, and was once known as “The Little Paris,” full of grand French-style 18th and 19th century buildings, elegant boulevards, and charming historic churches. Now, it is characterized by a big mix of old and new styles, with the Communist influence of recent decades apparent everywhere in the big, modern, functional buildings alongside the centuries-old architecture. Bucharest is a city of contrasts and change, and is now prospering again and becoming a fast-paced metropolis to be reckoned with. The city is well-known for its excellent cultural performances and events, its museums, lovely parks and gardens, interesting monuments and unexpected nooks and crannies of historical beauty.
