Catalin — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 18:33:03 +0000

Cismigiu Park already has a history that dates back more than a century and a half. The oldest and stylish park in Bucharest, it covers an area of 17 ha. This is a unique opportunity to find peace and relaxation right in the core of the city.
Designed in the Romanticist style by an Austrian landscape gardener in the mid 19th century, Cismigiu is made up of a French garden in the western part, the authors’ area and the Roman area, a rose garden in the northern part and three lakes. With its paved or asphalted alleys, either large or narrow and sinuous, and its hundred-year-old trees, Cismigiu is a blessed oasis in the middle of the turbulent city.
Cismigiu Park is located between Regina Elisabeta Blvd, Calea Victoriei, Ştirbei Vodă Street and Schitu Măgureanu Blvd.
