The City
As the capital city of Romania, Bucharest has an enormous historical and cultural legacy, observable throughout the city. Owning the status of a popular coffee enthusiasts’ venue, with quirky little shops around every corner, grabbing a drink pairs up well with a visit to the art museums or the many big parks, easily accessible by foot or by subway, which is around 7 euros per month for students. The mountains and seaside are also only 2-3 hours away.
