Magazinul București, located at the intersection of Bulevardul I.C. Brătianu and Strada Lipscani, was one of the largest and most modern shopping centers in Romania during the interwar period. Built in 1929 by the self-taught entrepreneur Bucur Bunescu, the building was a symbol of the city’s modernity and economic progress. After a period of decline post-Revolution, the building was purchased by Dutch investors in 2013 and underwent a major renovation, completed in 2020.
Today, Magazinul București houses offices, retail spaces, and the Naive restaurant on the 5th and 6th floors, offering a spectacular panoramic view of the city.
