Kretzulescu Church is a historic Eastern Orthodox church built between 1720-1722 in the Brâncovenesc style, located in the heart of Bucharest, on Calea Victoriei next to the Royal Palace. The church is built in the shape of a cross, with a bell tower on the pronaos. The façade made of brick replaced the original one which was painted. The porch decorated with Byzantine frescoes dating from the original structure has five arches, on the west facade, and two arches on the two sides. The interior of the church is adorn with frescoes from 1859-1860 and beautifully carved wooden iconostasis.
Bucharest is the capital city of Romania, the largest city in the country and the 6th largest city in the European Union by population. It is the most important economic, administrative and cultural centre of Romania. It lies in the middle of the Romanian Plain, on the banks of Dâmbovița River, a small northern tributary of the Danube. With its wide, tree-lined boulevards and the beautiful Belle Époque buildings, Bucharest brings today something of the Little Paris's charm, as the capital city was nicknamed in the early 1900s. With its elegant buildings with French inspired architecture and its locals studying in France's capital, greeting or even speaking each other in French or wearing the latest fashion creations from Paris, Bucharest had a French bohemian atmosphere at the beginning of the 20th century.
