Constanța 🌊
The oldest city in Romania, between ancient ruins, cliffs and sea.
Old Tomis, founded by the Greeks over 2500 years ago, is the oldest attested city of Romania — here the poet Ovidiu was exiled, whose statue still stands today in the square bearing his name.
The old peninsula gathers landmarks: the Art Nouveau Casino on the cliff, the symbol of the city, recently restored; the Charles I Mosque with its minaret; the Roman Building with Mosaic and the Museum of History.
And to the north starts Mamaia, the most famous resort on the coastline, with wide beaches and holiday life. Constanta is also a city, a port, and a gateway to the sea — with something for every season.
