The experience was quite nice. You can sightsee here a lot because the City is small. Also you can use the tramway to go everywhere. Bailey Felix, Bear Cave, Piata Uniri are the famous places to see.

Little city, very nice to walk around. I stayed in a hostel and met a lot of people, Many of them romanians. I stayed a week. Very nice nightlife, i felt super-safe and meet a lot of friendly people. I felt at home.

Hello! I want to share with you a beautiful experience from a trip I took to Romania. My mother is from there, so I’ve been lucky to visit this country several times, about 5-6, since I was little. Every time I went, I felt very comfortable and safe, especially in the area where my family lives. I never felt any threat or danger, which made me enjoy my holidays even more. One of the places worth seeing is the museums. Although I don’t have many other recommendations, what’s certain is that Romania holds a special place in my heart. I will definitely go again, because every trip there gives me the chance to discover new sides of the place connected to my roots. I recommend visiting it if you want a different and authentic experience. !

I'd say it's generally pretty safe objectively. It doesn't always feel the safest, but it's not very common for stuff to happen and I've walked alone at night. Granted, I was scared shitless and often resorted to pretending I was on a call, but that's also my paranoia 😅

Unless you go to a creepy area, which you can tell by it being very dark, houses looking poor pr bad, Bucharest is extremely safe. You just have to be cautious as everywhere else. I’ve walked at night with no problems till now.

I think as far as european capitals go, Bucharest is one of the safest cities in have been in. There are of course exceptions but i have had no problems walking by myself, living alone, going out at night, moving throughout this city. People do not seem that welcoming at first, but there are plenty gems all around, and people who open their hearts to everyone!
