The inauguration of Lagoon Park Bucharest, the new Public Access Lagoons® project, also known as PAL® developments, in Romania, has sparked unprecedented global media coverage. Over 300 media outlets from various countries, including Yahoo Finance, Europa Press, European Business Magazine, ADN Kronos, Finanzen, Mundiario, FinanzNachrichten, and Presseportal, have highlighted this development in Romania’s capital, Bucharest, emphasizing the revolution that Crystal Lagoons® technology will create by bringing an idyllic beach lifestyle to this iconic Mediterranean European. This project not only redefines the urban landscape of Bucharest but also offers a new entertainment hub in the area.
This press interest demonstrates the project’s significant appeal. It features a monumental crystalline lagoon suitable for swimming and water sports, accessible to all through ticketed entry. The lagoon is surrounded by 11,000 m² of white sandy beaches, restaurants, beach bars, terraces, sports and events areas, exhibition halls, green areas, and bespoke services that will complement the lagoon, epitomizing the quintessential PAL® experience.
Lagoon Park Bucharest is being developed in partnership with Forty Management, a renowned and award-winning Romanian firm with which the multinational innovation company has already built projects in Italy, France, Spain, the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary. The complex forms part of the Central District Lagoon City megaproject, which also features a 5-star Radisson hotel with 323 rooms and 400 luxury apartments for rent, 8,200 m² of class-A office space, retail areas, restaurants, cinemas, a sky bar, and spa.
“Throughout the world, and particularly in Europe, PAL® projects are known for their appealing and disruptive innovative urban approach, bringing a piece of the ocean to cities, a phenomenon similar to what happened 200 years ago in England, when the first urban parks were created in London, bringing a forest experience to the city,” said Jean Pierre Juanchich, Global Business Director of Crystal Lagoons.
