Calea Victoriei is Bucharest’s most famous thoroughfare. Dating back to 1962, it hosts an array of palaces, churches, museums, and high-end shopping establishments.

Tip from Content Creator

Carturesti Carusel Therme Bucharest Fratelli Studios The Triumphal Arch, Pisica Patrata installation at Cinema Capitol

Once you've picked an Airbnb for your stay in Bucharest, make a list of the things to do there for an enjoyable stay. Here are some of my recommendations:

- Try their local sarmale (cabbage rolls), mamaliga (polenta) and mci (meat rolls). ⁣

- Learn about the Roma ‘gypsy’ community with an Open Door Tour.

- Visit Therme Bucharest. I wouldn’t normally tell you to go to a spa on a city trip, but this one was only 15 EUR (16.07 USD) and gave access to all the thermal and mineral pools, pink Himalayan and rainforest saunas, and a bunch of other cool wellness stuff. There is also a bar in the main pool! ⁣

- If you love reading, step into Carturesti Carusel - you won’t be disappointed. ⁣

- Take an ‘alternative’ walking tour of Bucharest to find out about the urban legends of the city. ⁣

- Head to Fratelli Studios nightclub, where they’re always hosting themed nights. We enjoyed a circus theme with a carousel, popcorn and candy floss! ⁣
