Bucharest is wonderful. It is placed in the south-east of the country.

The Dambovita River crosses Bucharest, offering a beautiful view.

The climate is continental-temperate, with hot summers and mild winters (snow falls only in January, sometimes in February).

The city is situated in the historical region called Muntenia. The other ones are Oltenia, Banat, Crisana, Maramures, Bucovina, Transylvania, Moldova and Dobrogea.

There’s not so much to add about the Geography of Bucharest, yet, if you are interested, I encourage you to read more about it.
