Dobroeşti is a commune in the east of Ilfov County, Romania, right off the limits of Bucharest's Sector 2. It is composed of two villages, Dobroeşti and Fundeni. The name Dobroeşti is derived from South Slavic/Bulgarian "Dobro" (good) and Romanian suffix -eşti. A modern shopping and apartment complex, for overseas Chinese, have been built in Dobroeşti, dubbed as Chinatown.[2]
