Just not to think too much about all the obligations that are waiting for me in Poland, I set out for my last weekend trip during my stay here. This time direction south. No plans and no expectations as well. I only wanted to get to Tulcea and catch some boat going along Danube to the Black See.
Starting from A2 direction Constanca. A few minutes were enough (although a few minutes before I had lost my straw hat in metro. Bad omen...) to get a ride till Constanta. So it determined my day - it was impossible to get to Tulcea before 13.30 when the only ferry to Sulina, the village by the Black Sea, sets off. I was not in a hurry at all. On the way to Constanca I had a quick glance (through the window only...) at vineyards in Murfatlar and at the nuclear power plant in Cerbavoda. And we crossed the Danube where suddenly the whole landscape changed its colour into yellow and became more 'mediterranean'.
Calm breakfast by the Black Sea, strolling around Constaca a little bit and planning what to do next.Constanca is the biggest Romanian city by the Black Sea, normally crowded with people, I suppose. But not on 1st October:
The season seems to be over. |
The most characteristic building in Constanca - Casino. Closed. In 3 years it will turn into a squat |
Old town centre - an archeological museum |
The whole old part of Constanca looks like this. Truly beautiful, but repulsive for most of the people. Whole Romania is almost like Italy. Almost. |

Old synagogue... |
... occupied by Gypsies |
1h was enough to see everything. Next place - Histria. The archeological site by the sea, where we can find the remainings of a Greek polis. The whole Black Sea coast is full of such places, but this one is the most famous.
This time i went by bus, as hitchhiking in coastal regions is always very hard - it is hard to find the place where 1 village ends and another one starts.
Endless fields and water. Most of Dobrogea region is like this. |
I get off and still have 7 km to walk......
7 km in sun.... And finally I arrived 5 min after closing...
But that was not a problem, because the warden was still working, but now on his own :)
If they are really 2000 years old then I admit that it's impressive |
And now 7 km back to the road.... |
Well, i felt a little bit dissapointed with the site. the outdoor part looked like as if they had collected all the stones from the place and build everything from scratch 20 years ago, just to attract tourist.
So this was my first mistake during the trip - I should have stayed in Murfatlar for some wine tasting instead of coming here.
the indispensable HDBT (Heavy Duty Blue Tent) |
Before the sunset I got to the main road to Tulcea, so at least I was sure that the next day I wouldn't miss the ferry.
