This is a little bit of the historic town spared by both the Ceaucescus and the traffic planners. There are plenty of bars and restaurants and it's good just to wander and see and feel it. Don't miss Manuc's Inn or St Nicholas's Church (see separate entries). More

Old Town is a must see area in downtown Bucharest. A couple square blocks of restaurants, cafes, bars, and clubs. The streets are lined with outdoor seating under umbrellas and canopies, and the food offerings range from traditional Romanian to Gelato to Sushi. Great for people watching, lots of people strolling by and sitting near you. More
