Standout Playgrounds in Bucharest, 8 of 12: Bazilescu Park

Bazilescu Park covers 13.5 hectares of tree-lined paths in Bucureștii Noi, and a few of its oldest trees are remnants of the Vlăsia forests. Kids get playgrounds, plus an artesian fountain in front of the Summer Theater, an open-air stage from 1953 that is being restored.
The Sector 1 Children's Club sits inside the park and runs school-age clubs in music, theater, rhythmic gymnastics, English and rugby.
