Splaiul Tudor Vladimirescu (known as Bégabalsor during the Austro-Hungarian administration)[2]:230 is a street along the left bank of the Bega Canal in the Iosefin district of the western Romanian city of Timișoara. Its counterpart on the right bank is Splaiul Nicolae Titulescu. It was named after Tudor Vladimirescu, a prominent figure in Romanian history who led the Wallachian uprising of 1821.[1]

It starts at the junction of Michael the Brave Boulevard (formerly Püspök út) and Michael the Brave Bridge (Püspök híd), crosses 16 December 1989 Boulevard (Hunyadi út) at the Mary Bridge (Hunyadi híd), and runs to Rahovei Street. It continues in Elisabetin as Vasile Pârvan Boulevard.

The German Consulate has been operating at number 9, in the Flavia Palace, since 2003.[2]:159
