The Scaune Church (Romanian: Biserica Scaune) is a Romanian Orthodox church located at 2 Scaune Street in Bucharest, Romania. It is dedicated to the Dormition of the Mother of God and to the Nativity of Mary. The pisanie indicates the presence of a wooden church in 1611, and a list of priests in the parish archive begins with that year. The first documentary mention dates to 1669, with additional records later in the 17th century. The name derives from the surrounding district, and refers to the wooden slabs on which butchers cut meat. In its first two centuries, it was also known as Măcelarilor (Butchers’) and Săpunarilor (Soap makers’). The present church is located on the same site; the pisanie records that it was completed in 1705. A merchant willed funds for the purpose, which were granted by his nephew. In 1843, the portico arches were enclosed in masonry, while the exterior was plastered and repainted. It was repaired again in 1878, and once more in 1915, when it lay in ruins.The church was closed from around 1908 to 1939. At that point, repairs started under architect Ștefan Balș-Lupu, who opened the arches and tiled the roof. In 1944, the surrounding soil was cleared away, as the terrain is around one meter higher than the base of the church. New flooring was installed on the interior and exterior. The iconostasis, dating to the early 18th century, was restored, as was the baldachin. The interior frescoes are original, their date and author unknown; these too were cleaned and repaired. The church reopened on August 15, 1944, the primary feast day, and was reconsecrated on September 8, the second feast.The cross-shaped church measures 27.1 meters long by 8.3 to 12 meters wide, with thick walls. Its only dome, the octagonal bell tower with recessed arches above the narthex, was rebuilt in 1954. There was originally another one above the nave, which was not restored, and the central part of this section has a vaulted ceiling. The portico features ten thick brick columns supporting five quite narrow arches on the western facade (the central one being larger) and two on each side. It has two vaulted ceiling sections. The stone portal is carved with floral designs. The wooden door is coated in tin, signed by a worker in 1795. The exterior decoration is light: a string course between two rows of brick set in sawtooth pattern, a cornice with a similar design and windows with simple stone frames. The cornice and dome base feature specially positioned bricks. The parish house dates to 1947.The church is listed as a historic monument by Romania's Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs.

The Kilometer Zero monument (Romanian: Kilometrul Zero) located in central Bucharest, Romania, in front of Saint George's Church, was created by Constantin Baraschi in 1938. The distances from Bucharest to other cities in Romania are measured from this monument. It is divided into eight sections, each representing a Romanian historical province: Muntenia, Dobruja, Bessarabia, Moldavia, Bukovina, Transylvania, Banat, and Oltenia. Among the cities inscribed on it are also Cahul, Chișinău, Orhei, and Tighina (which are currently in the Republic of Moldova), Cernăuți, Cetatea Albă, Ismail, and Storojineț (now in Ukraine), as well as Bazargic and Silistra (now in Bulgaria), which were part of Greater Romania before World War II.

The Old St. George Church (Romanian: Biserica Sfântul Gheorghe Vechi) is a Romanian Orthodox church located at 36 Calea Moșilor in Bucharest, Romania. It is dedicated to Saint George. A monastery was established on the site in 1492, as mentioned in the 1848 pisanie. The nearby foundation of a 16th-century church was excavated in 1954. Tradition holds that the monastery was the seat of the Metropolis of Ungro-Wallachia between 1545 and 1575. The complex was destroyed by Ottoman forces in November 1595, following the Battle of Călugăreni. A 1621 document mentions the imposing bell tower that likely survived until the Great Fire of 1847. Documents of the 1660s and ‘70s mention the church, which burned in 1718 but was rebuilt in 1724. Seriously damaged by the 1802 and 1838 earthquakes, it was finally destroyed by the 1847 Great Fire of Bucharest. Quickly rebuilt by parishioners, it reopened in 1849. The frail structure was demolished in 1875.The parish council supervised the rebuilding of the church, which was completed in 1881 and consecrated the same year by Calinic Miclescu. Gheorghe Pompilian, inspired by Gheorghe Tattarescu, executed the painting. The iconostasis, carved in sycamore, is in the Ukrainian Baroque style, as is the church itself. Parts of the interior are linden, while the massive entrance door is oak. Renovations were carried out following the 1940 earthquake, in 1964 and in the 1980s and ‘90s.The cross-shaped church is 32 x 16.9 meters, with the Christ Pantocrator dome reaching 24 meters high. The narthex, typical of the 19th century, is especially large. There is an original crypt under the altar. The structure has walls of 90-100 centimeters thick, on a foundation of cement and brick. The windows are of stained glass. The exterior is simple, the decor consisting of pilasters with neo-Corinthian capitals. A Greek Revival pediment sits above the portico. The domes are characteristically Ukrainian Baroque, but adapted for Romanian preferences.The church is listed as a historic monument by Romania's Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs.

In the period between the two World Wars, the city's elegant architecture and the sophistication of its elite earned Bucharest the nickname of 'Paris of the East' (Romanian: Parisul Estului) or 'Little Paris' (Romanian: Micul Paris). Although buildings and districts in the historic city centre were heavily damaged or destroyed by war, earthquakes, and even Nicolae Ceaușescu's program of systematization, many survived and have been renovated. In recent years, the city has been experiencing an economic and cultural boom. It is one of the fastest-growing high-tech cities in Europe, according to the Financial Times, CBRE, TechCrunch, and others.

In 2020, the government used 2.5 million people as the basis for pandemic reports. Bucharest is the fourth largest city in the European Union by population within city limits, after Berlin, Madrid, and Rome, just ahead of Paris.
