Bucharest is Romania's capital and the industrial and commercial centre of the country; it lies in the southeast of the country on the Dambovita River. Easily the largest city in Romania, Bucharest the 6th largest city in the EU by population in 2019. The Universitate is Bucharest's heart, and in recent decades its soul too; this is also where Bucharest comes to celebrate, be it a victory in football or the election of a popular politician. The area around the square itself is packed with shops, bars, pubs and restaurants, as well as a number of hotels.
