Primăverii is a district situated in the north of Bucharest, Romania, in Sector 1. The area is one of the most expensive in the city and is home to many politicians and local celebrities.

History
The district is relatively new and was build on the old "Grădina Bordei" park which was situated on the outskirts of the city at the beginning of the 20th century. The park was given as a wedding present to his daughter Caliopi, by Constantin Hrisoscoleu, when she married Petrache Poenaru. The domain was later bought by Carol II of Romania. House construction started in 1930 on an area of the park called "Parcul Jianu". After World War II the communists build here villas for their leaders. It was a highly select area and heavily guarded by Securitate. It has remained an exclusive district since then.

Transportation
The district is served by the Aviatorilor metro station metro station and by various RATB buses.
