Bucharest, Romania<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Romania is a white spot on our map and it's not really the capital that attracts us, but rather places like Transylvania. But if you are travelling to Romania, it is of course interesting to visit the capital in connection with this. In Bucharest you can check out the magnificent Palace of Parliament and the old city centre with the Stavropoleos church from 1724. You can also sample Romanian cuisine, try out the nightlife or perhaps find some fun shopping.<\/p><div class=\"freed-grupp-stora-banners-i-blogginlagg-2 freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-839897508\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><div id=\"freed-474832620\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/wifi.se\/produkt\/hybrid-traveller-portabel-5g-router-med-backup-batteri-i-over-6-timmar-usb\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"freedom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/freedom.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"588\" height=\"288\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"362\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-1024x362.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-148221\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-1024x362.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-768x271.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-433x153.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-1200x424.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280-600x212.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/bucharest-2711896_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-belgrad-serbien\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Belgrad_Serbien\"><\/span>5th Belgrade, Serbia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We've been on the verge of visiting Serbia's capital Belgrade several times, but we've yet to go.
