Gorjului is a metro station in Bucharest named after the Piaţa Gorjului (Gorjului Market), east of which is situated.

It was added later to the system in the 1990s, and built in two stages. The platform for trains headed for Industriilor was built first, and after a few years, the platform for trains headed for Eroilor entered revenue service. As a consequence the two platforms and associated vestibules were built with different materials and different colour schemes were used (the outbound platform features a warm reddish colour scheme, while the inbound platform uses a darker colder materials and colours).
