City guide
Visiting Bucharest in May
May brings warm sunshine around 23 degrees; weekend pedestrian closures along Calea Victoriei turn the avenue into a vibrant celebration.
Bucharest is the spirited and intriguing capital of Romania, set across the Danubian plain in the south of the country. Around the turn of the twentieth century, the city earned the title 'Little Paris' thanks to its tree-lined boulevards, romantic landscaped parks, and grand French Belle Époque mansions.
- From the airport
- Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP) is located in Otopeni, 16 kilometers north of the city. A convenient direct train runs every 40 minutes from the airport terminal to Bucharest North Station (Gara de Nord) in just 20 to 25 minutes. Express bus 100 links the airport to Piața Unirii. Licensed airport taxis booked via touchscreen kiosks in the arrivals hall cost roughly 15 to 20 euros.
- Getting around
- Bucharest's historic quarter and the famous Calea Victoriei boulevard are best explored on foot. For longer city journeys, Bucharest operates a dependable five-line metro network connecting key quarters and rail terminals. Ridesharing apps such as Bolt and Uber are ubiquitous, reliable, and very affordable.
