4. Bucharest, probably the most underrated city in Europe,
is the city of contrasts. Green,
large French-style boulevards run through
many areas of the city. Next to them,
there are likely to be small,
picturesque streets squeezed
by ugly Communist blocks.
Beautiful green neighborhoods with
19th and 20th-century villas built in different
styles coexist next to the slums of poor
minorities.
Bucharest is a lively city with an Old Town
full of restaurants and bars. Parks such
as the lovely Cismigiu Gardens can be
a wonderful retreat during the scorching
summer days. Bucharest is a place of culture,
with a great many theaters and jazz bars.
It is a city full of history, unspoiled,
and happily, still free of mass tourism.

27. Danube River
Danube River, The Iron Gates
Napoleon used to call it the “king of all rivers,” and there
are many reasons for this. It is the only major river which
connects Europe from west to east, thus making it one of
the most strategic rivers on the continent. It gets to
Romania in the south-eastern part of the country and soon
forms the stunning gorge known as the Iron Gates. This
area is not just a splendid natural zone but also it is here
that you can see two mountain ranges – the Carpathians
and the Balkan Mountains – and two countries, Serbia
and Romania.
The journey up the Danube River ends in the Black Sea in
the form of a spectacular delta, one of the world’s most
important unspoiled natural areas. It is certainly one of the
last wild frontiers of Europe, a place with hundreds of
species of birds and fish. The gorgeous landscapes, the
virgin forests jutting out the water, the vast surfaces of the
wetlands are a pure paradise. To all of these, add the
remote villages and the wild sandy beaches where the
river meets the sea. Longer or shorter tours, like this one,
can be organized into the delta of Danube.

32. The Romanian Black Sea resorts or the Romanian Riviera
stretch along the Black Sea coast from the Danube Delta
at the northern end down to the Bulgarian Black Sea
Coast in the south, along 275 kilometers of coastline.
The most important resort is Mamaia, situated north of the
city of Constanța on a narrow land slice that separates the
Black Sea and Lake Siutghiol. Mamaia is a popular
destination in the summer for Romanians and foreign
tourists alike as a result of major investments in tourist
infrastructure.
Other important resorts have names from Roman and
Greek mythology, such as Eforie Nord, Neptun, Venus,
Saturn, Jupiter and Olimp.
