Macca Villacrosse Passage

Macca Villacrosse Passage is a hidden gem in Bucharest's city center, a covered pedestrian arcade that connects Calea Victoriei to Strada Ion Câmpineanu. Built in the late 19th century, the passage features a striking glass-and-iron roof that floods the space with natural light, creating a greenhouse-like ambiance. The walls are adorned with ornate stucco and frescoes, and the floor is paved with mosaic tiles. Today, the passage is lined with cozy cafes, restaurants, and bars, making it a popular spot for both locals and tourists to enjoy a coffee, a meal, or a drink. The atmosphere is lively yet relaxed, with outdoor seating spilling into the passage. It's particularly charming in the evening when the lights come on. Despite being a bit off the main tourist trail, it's a must-visit for its unique architecture and vibrant social scene.

Ein Stück Geschichte

The passage was built in 1891 by Romanian entrepreneur Macca, inspired by similar covered arcades in Paris and Milan. It was originally a commercial hub with shops and a hotel. The name 'Villacrosse' comes from a French investor who later owned the property.
