Pasajul Vilacrosse, Covered pedestrian passage in central Bucharest, Romania.

The fork-shaped arcade features a yellow glass roof that filters sunlight through its two branches connecting Calea Victoriei to the National Bank.

Built in 1891 by architect Felix Xenopol, the passage replaced the Campineanu Inn and emerged as a solution to reduce street congestion.

During the interwar period, the passage contained Bucharest's first stock exchange and later became a center for jewelry stores from 1950 to 1990.

The passage contains multiple restaurants, cafes, and wine bars, remaining accessible throughout the day and night for pedestrians exploring the historic district.

The passage splits into two branches due to a hotel owner's refusal to sell the central property during its construction period.
