Lake Văcărești was originally part of a failed hydrological infrastructure plan to connect Bucharest to the river Danube. Eventually nature reclaimed this space and it has remained hidden behind high dykes, in the middle of one of Europe’s densest cities. It is a virtually uninhabited space, save for a few Roma camps deep in the wetlands.
