Tineretului on the map of Bucharest

Tineretului is a small neighborhood in south Bucharest, Romania in Sector 4, close to the city center, named after the nearby Tineretului Park.

History

Interest in the area begun in the 1960s when a new road that linked North Bucharest to the South was constructed under the name Magistrala Nord-Sud. The road was later renamed Dimitrie Cantemir Boulevard. Construction of Tineretului Park was finished in 1965. This led to a fast urbanization of the area. Because the park was arranged and cleaned by young volunteers from schools and factories (Communist propaganda) it was named Parcul Tineretului literally meaning park of the youths. ^[1]

Transportation

The area is served by Tineretului, Piata Sudului and Constantin Brâncoveanu metro stations. Busses that go through the area include 381, 313, 312, 116, 634.
