Bucharest in April

Spring finally arrives

The short answer

April is a good time to visit Bucharest.

April is when Bucharest starts feeling properly spring-like, with greener parks and much more comfortable sightseeing conditions. Weather can still be changeable, but the city becomes noticeably more enjoyable outdoors.
