Tei, Bucharest
Tei is a neighborhood in Bucharest, Romania - Sector 2. The name comes from the name of the lake in this area: Lacul Tei (Linden Tree Lake). The name of the lake comes from the linden woods that existed around him in the past. At the beginning of the 19th century, the area belonged to the Ghica family, who build the Orthodox church "Biserica Teiul Doamnei Ghika" and, in 1822 the Ghica palace (Palatul Ghica). Around 1900, the area south of the "Calea Lacul Teiului" (today "Bulevardul Lacul Tei") have been sold to Bulgarian gardenders (called "sârbi"). After the First World war, on the grounds located north and southeast of the "Calea Lacul Teiului" have been built with houses. During the Nicolae Ceauşescu era, many apartment buildings, as well as the Technical University of Civil Engineering of Bucharest and the State Circus have been built.
Still today, in the neighbourhoods there are a lot of linden trees, and when they are in bloom, they spread a strong scent. Tei has developed in the last few years from a middle-class neighbourhood into an upper-class one with many mansions being built recently.
Bucharest
Bucharest (/ˈbjuːkərɛst/; Romanian: București, pronounced [bukuˈreʃtʲ]) is the capital and largest city of Romania, as well as its cultural, industrial, and financial centre. It is located in the southeast of the country, at 44°25′57″N 26°06′14″E / 44.43250°N 26.10389°E / 44.43250; 26.10389Coordinates: 44°25′57″N 26°06′14″E / 44.43250°N 26.10389°E / 44.43250; 26.10389, on the banks of the Dâmbovița River, less than 60 km (37.3 mi) north of the Danube River and the Bulgarian border.
Bucharest was first mentioned in documents in 1459. It became the capital of Romania in 1862 and is the centre of Romanian media, culture, and art. Its architecture is a mix of historical (neo-classical), interbellum (Bauhaus and art deco), communist-era and modern. In the period between the two World Wars, the city's elegant architecture and the sophistication of its elite earned Bucharest the nickname of "Little Paris" (Micul Paris). Although buildings and districts in the historic city centre were heavily damaged or destroyed by war, earthquakes, and above all Nicolae Ceaușescu's program of systematization, many survived. In recent years, the city has been experiencing an economic and cultural boom.
