I travelled a lot across the Est of Europe in the past years, and Bucharest is the worst city of all. Romania is fine, transilvania being quite nice...but the Capital is terrible, loads of gypsies trying to rip you off, lots of beggars and the city is dirty and has a dark sinister feel. During the communist years, after an earthquake the city has being rebuild in a kind of very very cheap copy of Paris. The result is horrible, loads of cement... Romanians say the same, that their capital is auwful and very communist. I don't know about the other rewiewers, can't understand how it can be a beatiful city, or even the best of all.
