Tired of city breaks to the same well-worn European destinations? If you fancy a long weekend with a twist, why not swap Budapest for Bucharest. Associated with Dracula, Nicolae Ceausescu and packs of roaming dogs, it may not top everyone’s wish list but is guaranteed to raise a few eyebrows in the office. However change is in the air with the canines moving up to dogtown and dilapidated buildings being rapidly re-vamped to make way for a new wave of up-market restaurants and trendy night-spots sweeping into the city.
