Calea Victoriei in Bucharest

One of the most important arteries in the center of Bucharest, Calea Victoriei, becomes a pedestrian road on weekends, when it is assaulted by Bucharest residents and tourists alike. In the past, it was the promenade area for the elite; we know from literature books about Capșa coffee shop or Gambrinus beer house. Stop a little further up, at the Villacrosse Passage, which connects Calea Victoriei and Lipscani Street, admire the architecture of the buildings and the stained glass windows of the ceiling, while enjoying an apple tea with a Turkish shisha.

Pro TIp: Make a visit to Capșa confectionery, for the best chocolate candies, prepared according to the original recipe.
