Most instagramable locations from Bucharest

Bucharest, the capital city of Romania , my home town and one of my favourite cities, offers so manny Instagram-worthy locations.

During the last years I have been on a hunt for the top picture worthy locations from this amazing city so I can share with you 🤩

1.Palace of the Parliament:

This massive building is the world's second-largest administrative building and provides impressive photo opportunities with its grand architecture and surrounding gardens.

3.Stavropoleos Monastery

This small Eastern Orthodox monastery in the heart of the city features intricate architectural details and beautiful courtyards. It's an ideal spot for capturing the spiritual ambiance and stunning frescoes.

Victoriei Avenue:

Victoriei avenue is the promenade of the city. In the summer weekends they close they prohibit the traffic on the whole boulevard and it becomes a walkable piece of history. Kinda everything here is Instagramable and a real experience in itself. Just take a day off start the walk at the government building and go up until the old town! Here are a few locations you can find on the way there:

4.The Romanian Athenaeum:

This iconic concert hall is known for its neoclassical architecture. The elegant exterior and grand staircase make for a striking Instagram photo, especially during evening hours when it's illuminated.

5.Church Cretulescu:

This amazing Orthodox church is considered one of the most valuable arhitecture monuments of the city of Bucharest .

It was built between 1720-1722 by Iordache Cretulestu and his wife Safta.

Cismigiu Gardens

Capture the beauty of Bucharest's oldest public garden, Cismigiu, with its colorful flowerbeds, serene lake, and charming bridges. The park is particularly photogenic during spring when the flowers are in full bloom.

TIP:you can also rent a boat and have a trip on the lake during summer time. Renting a boat costs 3E per hour

4.Carturesti Carusel

This librarry was named one of the most beautifull libraryes of the world! Book lovers will adore this enchanting bookstore in the Old Town. The spiral staircase, ornate ceilings, and rows of books create a dreamy atmosphere, perfect for Instagram-worthy shots.

9. The colorfull stars

These stairs are in the neiborhood of The palace of Cotroceni. No hidden hystory here just a very cool local project.

The Arc of Triumpf

Yep you heard right! We have one to not only the French😀

Fun fact Bucharest was called Little Paris in the 1900ts not only for its elegant architecture, but also for the fact that locals greeted each other in French, wore the latest Paris fashions, and would frequently travel to and study in France's capital.

The Arc of Triumph was built to comemorate Romania’s contribution in the second world war.

It was renovated completly in 2021 so now you can enjoy the best of it.

Hey if you are really lucky there are some days you canngo inside and climb all the way to the top!

I had this oportunity and it’s so breathtaking🤩
