Bucharest

Hab. 1,758,700

Bucharest was once known as the ‘Paris of the East’ for its Belle Époque architecture and wide, tree-lined avenues. Much of that heritage was destroyed to make way for the communist blocks designed by the dictator Ceaușescu. Bucharest perfectly encapsulates what Romania is all about: a beautiful, historic city that was destroyed by communism and is now in the process of being rebuilt.

Iasi

Hab. 316,343

It is a very important city in Romania, having served as the country’s capital on several occasions and having always been its foremost cultural and religious centre.

Constanza

Hab. 283,872

A city situated on the Black Sea coast, founded by the Greeks over 2,500 years ago. Emperor Constantine changed the city’s name from Tomis to its current name, Constanța, in honour of his sister.

Sibiu

Hab. 147,245

Sibiu, a gem of Transylvania, Romania, captivates visitors with its rich history and medieval architecture. Geographically situated in the heart of the country, the city enchants with its cobbled streets and lively squares. A unique feature are its ‘eyes on the rooftops’ – dormer windows that seem to gaze curiously at visitors, inviting them to discover its secrets.

The Danube

The River Danube plays a significant role in Romanian geography for several reasons: it forms the border with Bulgaria and Serbia, and with Ukraine in some sections; it has created highly fertile plains (among the most fertile in Europe) throughout the southern part of the country; and its delta, Europe’s largest wetland and the world’s largest reed bed, is arguably the best-preserved wildlife sanctuary on the continent.

The Carpathians

The Carpathians, which curve around the Transylvanian Plateau, form a natural barrier in Romania. These mountains feature numerous transverse and longitudinal valleys through which major rivers flow. Historically, these valleys made the Carpathians easy to defend, yet equally easy to traverse.

Transylvania

Transylvania, cradled by the Carpathian Mountains, is a secluded region boasting some of Europe's most abundant wildlife. It's a haven for creatures like bears and wolves. This isolated landscape offers a glimpse into a world untouched by extensive human development, preserving its natural beauty and diverse animal populations for all to experience.
