Mărăcineni (Comuna Mărăcineni)
Mărăcineni lies on the left bank of the river Buzău, at its exit from between the Subcarpathian Hills, only 1 km north from the city of Buzău, located on the opposite bank of the river. Mărăcineni is connected to the city via the DN2 national road, across a bridge, known as either the Buzău bridge or the Mărăcineni bridge, which is the most important road connection between Bucharest and the cities of Moldavia. This bridge was damaged by floods during the summer of 2005, and was demolished and rebuilt by November of the same year.
The commune is made up of three villages (Mărăcineni, Căpățânești and Potoceni).
