The natal chart of Bucharest is the date of September 29, 1459 (GC), when the the ruler Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler, aka Dracula according to Bram Stoker's book) first mentioned in an official document the name of the city, Bucharest.

Although this is not the foundation chart of the city, it is however a good natal chart for Bucharest, sensitive to the astrological transits as shown below.

Important historical moments for Bucharest - along with the most important astrological influence that allowed it happen by an significant aspect of a transiting planet to the natal chart of Bucharest, with a below 1 degree orb in almost all the cases (all dates in the Gregorian Calendar):

April 4, 1944 - the big American bombardment over Bucharest produced heavy damages and the loss of thousands of lives - transiting Sun in opposition with natal Mercury, transiting Mars in opposition with natal Saturn and square natal Sun

House of the People (Parliament's Palace)

Located in the center of Bucharest, the capital of Romania

Bucharest, Romania - House of the people (Parliament's Palace) - the second largest building of the world, built between 1984-1989 (construction started on June 25, 1984) by the former Communist ruler of the country, Nicolae Ceausescu, a landmark of Romanian architecture, art and design. The stylish beauty of its insides can easily compete with any famous Art Museum of the world, including the Louvre. It is located on the Uranus Hill and currently hosts the Deputy Chamber of the Romanian Parliament.

There is striking resemblance with Dalai Lama's palace from Lhasa, Tibet (see picture below).

Lhasa, Tibet - the Potala Palace, winter palace of the Dalai Lama since the 7th century, symbolises Tibetan Buddhism and its central role in the traditional administration in Tibet.
