Romania's capital is always worth a visit, but there are certain times of the year when the city seems to get ready to celebrate and put on its best clothes. One such season is spring - the season when it's neither too hot nor too cold, when the trees put on their fragrant wreaths of flowers and people put on their faces happiness and optimism after a period of hibernation. 

Bucharest in spring

There are plenty of reasons to visit Bucharest in spring, including: 

Bucharest in spring. Ideal weather

Spring brings pleasant temperatures between 15 and 25°C, perfect for urban exploring. The days are sunny and pleasant, without the intense heat of summer or the chill of winter, providing ideal conditions for discovering the city in all its splendor. A t-shirt and a pair of light trousers are the ideal attire for getting around the city. 

As far as public transport is concerned, the weather is perfect, as the air in the STBs is not yet stifling, even at rush hour. 

Bucharest in spring. Spectacular parks and gardens

Bucharest is famous for its beautiful parks, which become even more attractive in spring. Herăstrău Park, the city's largest, invites you to stroll along shady alleyways, around shimmering lakes and through blooming meadows. Here, we especially recommend a visit to the Japanese Garden, with its flowering trees that will send you back to paintings by Renoir or Monet. The Cișmigiu Garden, the oldest in Bucharest, reveals its romantic charm, with benches hidden under flowering trees and picturesque alleyways ideal for quiet strolls.

Don't get bored in spring! Bucharest becomes a lively scene, animated by numerous festivals and cultural events.

Also in spring, Femei pe Mătăsari, one of the oldest and most popular festivals in Bucharest, offers exhibitions, concerts, theater, film screenings and delicious food from the Mătăsari area. These events enrich the city's atmosphere and offer unique opportunities to enjoy local culture.
