Foro is a coastal town in the Red Sea State of northern Eritrea, located about 50 kilometers south of the port of Massawa on the coastline near the Dahlak Archipelago on the Red Sea. Known for its pristine beaches, crystal clear waters and rich marine ecology, it is an important stronghold for local fishing and small-scale trade. The waters around Foro have coral reefs that have not been massively damaged, attracting a small number of divers and nature lovers looking for tranquillity. Despite the relatively simple tourist facilities, the town retains the rustic flavor of the Eritrean coast, and visitors can experience traditional fishing culture and explore the nearby Dahlak Islands. As a hidden corner of Eritrea's Red Sea coast, Foro showcases the East African country's untouched natural charms.
Bucharest, the capital and largest city of Romania, is located in the middle of the Danube River Plain in the southeast of the country and is a political, economic and cultural center. The historic city is a blend of Orthodox, Byzantine and French flavors, and was once known as "Little Paris". The old town has preserved medieval buildings and Orthodox churches, while the iconic Palace of the Parliament (now the Palais des Congrès), the world's second-largest administrative building, is an imposing sight. As the economic hub of Romania, Bucharest has a vibrant and diverse mix of industrial, technological and service companies, as well as universities and cultural institutions.
