For a capital city, Bucharest is not that well endowed with open-air markets. but, if you want to buy fresh fruit from a market stall while you are staying in the city, Piaţa Amzei market is a good place. Most of the fruit is local and in season there is a great selection of berries, including raspberries, bilberries and blackberries. There are both indoor and outdoor sections, including some colourful stalls selling flowers.

Actually this is not a shop; it is a phenomenon; a local habit. Many people sell used or new books in their booths outside in the streets.
Romanians are on the top of the world what comes to level and amount of reading. They really do read a lot.
What to buy: Books; if you happen to find a non-Romanian language book.
What to pay: Cheaper than in traditional "western" countries.

Somewhat disapointing. You can actually find great classical music on DVD and CD.
Humanitas is an interesting shop selling religious icons.
The wine-expert stock some interesting Romanian wine. You will find a better selesction at the duty-free shop at the airport.
You can also find good glass and crystal ware.
What to pay: No real bargains

Feeria Shopping Gallery is one of the favorite shopping place. It is located north of Bucharest, on the road to Otopeni airport. This is a part of a bigger project - www.baneasa.ro - it is known mostly for the shopping gallery but for the big Carrefour hyper market as well. Pretty crowded on the road, in the parking and at the counters in weekends, but if you gotta go you gotta go :)

What to buy: Shoes, leather jackets etc. in wintertime

Bucharest is a fairly good place for shopping. If you're shopping for clothes than you might want to check out either the two shopping malls. For the moment there are two of those - Bucharest Mall and Bucharest Plaza - in 2007 there might be four. Also you can try Unirea Shopping Center (seen in the picture at night) or you can go north of Bucharest, between Baneasa Airport and Otopeni Airport, where Baneasa Center is growing, having the Feeria Commercial Center. Then there are the commercial streets like Magheru Blvd., Calea Mosilor or Calea Victoriei.

Unirea Shopping Center is a former communist department store which was transformed into the largest shopping area in Bucharest. Today it houses over 200 shops and boutiques in which you can buy pretty much everything you can think off (clothes, shoes, food, souvenirs, home stuff etc.). You can also find places to eat inside the shopping center. It doesn't look very appealing from the outside - I've read somewhere that they're planning on a new facade - but it's a good place to go shopping.
