About Bucharest for Solo Travelers

Communist-era megalomania meets a rapidly modernising city — solo travelers find Bucharest's Palace of Parliament, Art Nouveau villas, and rapidly evolving café culture one of Eastern Europe's most surprisingly engaging cities.

Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Bucharest surprises solo travelers — the Palace of the Parliament (the world's second-largest building, built by Ceaușescu) is extraordinary and requires a guided tour, the Floreasca and Dorobanți neighbourhoods have excellent restaurants and cafés, and the Village Museum (open-air collection of traditional Romanian architecture) is perfect for solo afternoon exploration. The city is safe, very affordable, and the nightlife in the Old Town (Centrul Vechi) is excellent.

Caru' cu Bere

Food & Drink

Romania's most beautiful restaurant — an 1879 Gothic Revival beer hall with stained glass, ornate woodwork, and ceiling frescoes serving traditional Romanian cuisine. The sarmale (stuffed cabbage rolls) and mici (grilled sausages) are excellent; the interior is one of the great dining rooms in Eastern Europe.
