ROMANIA
România is a country of great natural beauty
and diversity and a rich cultural heritage.
Romania enchants visitors with its scenic
mountain landscapes and unspoilt rural areas,
but also with its historic cities and its busy capital. Over
the last decade, it has seen significant development and is
one of the most recent members of the European Union.
Romania is famous for its Carpathian Mountains, Constantin Brancusi, wine, medieval fortresses, Mircea Eliade,
Dacia cars, Dracula, stuffed cabbage leaves, Nadia Comaneci, the Black Sea, Gheorghe Hagi, sunflower fields,
painted monasteries and the Danube Delta.
Romania is a member of the Schengen
Agreement but has not yet fully implemented
it.
For EU and EFTA (Iceland, Liechtenstein,
Norway and Switzerland) citizens, an
officially approved ID card (or a passport) is
sufficient for entry. In no case will they need
a visa for a stay of any length. Others will
generally need a passport for entry.
BUCHAREST
Romania’s capital and biggest
city is Bucharest, the 10th
largest city in the EU.
Bucharest has a four-season
climate. In the spring, the
weather can quickly alternate
between rain and sunshine.
June, July and August are the
hottest months. Bucharest is
the most important industrial
and commercial center of the
country.
Bucharest is a booming city with many
large infrastructure projects changing the
old face of the city. Known in the past as
“The
Little
Paris”,
Bucharest
has
significantly changed lately, and today it
has become a very interesting mix of old
and modern that has little to do with its
initial reputation. Finding a 300 year old
church, a steel-and-glass office building and
Communist-era apartment blocks next to
one another is a common sight.
Bucharest offers some excellent
attractions, and has, in recent
years, cultivated a sophisticated,
trendy, and modern sensibility
that many have come to expect
from a European capital.
MEETING VENUE
Ideally located right in the heart of the city,
very close to the Old Town, Novotel City
Center, the Venue of the meeting offers not
only an exceptional location, but also
a unique blend of classical architecture and
modern, functional design.
Novotel Bucharest City Center is
located among the historic monuments
(Royal Palace, Romanian Atheneum),
Museums (National History Museum,
Romanian National Art Museum),
Special Tourist Areas (Old Town –
Lipscani, Bucharest Botanical Garden,
Cismigiu Park) and other attractions.
