Bucharest and Beyond

The many faces of Bucharest and a few shots from the Constanta area.

Had the opportunity to visit Bucharest on business on three occasions; all very different experiences depending on the weather. My first trip to Bucharest was in January - cold, gray and not very pleasing. Nevertheless, very interesting and the city got prettier and prettier as the weather improved. A place that really seems to come alive in the summer.

Romania is certainly an interesting and beautiful place that I hope to explore more of.

Bucharest is a great place. Romania is popular not only for its natural beauties but also for the rich cultural as well as historical background. The black sea coast, the mountain zone are the must to visit places in Romania.
