15 days in Bucharest Itinerary

The booming city of Bucharest is a sophisticated metropolis with a high contrast of old- and new-world architecture.

Explore Bucharest's surroundings by going to Domeniul Stirbey (in Buftea), Therme București (in Balotesti) and Mogosoaia Palace (in Mogosoaia). Dedicate the 7th (Tue) to wine at some of the top wineries in the area. Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 13th (Mon) at Divertiland Water Park. There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at Muzeul National al Satului "Dimitrie Gusti", stroll through Herăstrău Park, test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, and get a sense of history and politics at Palace of Parliament.
