little except endless blocks, there is in fact a multitude of
things to see. That history has not been kind to Romania is in
fact the visitor's luck. Few other cities in Europe have seen as
much trouble as Bucharest in recent years, and if it's bullet
holes you are after, you have come to the right place (Piata
Revolutiei, to be precise). But there is also a panoply of
excellent museums, art galleries and not a few oddities. You

all this on your road to CLUJ-NAPOCA. |

Coming from Istanbul you may chose to visit the Golden Sands of
Varna. The gem of the Bulgarian Black Sea is situated at the end
of the big Varna Bay, with a convenient and well conserved water
area. The city's peculiar sea charm is sublime and moving.
Ancient, medieval, renaissance and modern cultures mingle and
coexist throughout the city. Apart from being a beach resort,
Varna rivals the great cities of Sofia and Plovdiv, in its
offering of cultural attractions and historical buildings,
museums and art galleries.
If you chose the Constanta route, then you will also get a
glimpse of the Romania Black Sea Coast. This is the main tourist
area, considering the large number of Romanian and foreign
tourists. The Romanian "Riviera", which is 50 km long, is made
up of a continuous belt of 16 seaside resorts (some of them
being also spas), out of which six are in high demand: Mamaia,
Eforie Nord, Costinesti (the resort of the youth), Neptun (the
favorite holiday place of former dictator Ceausescu), Olimp,
Venus, 2 Mai, all of them built after 1960. Tourists can visit
also the vestiges of the three colonies which were founded there
by ancient Greeks in the seventh - sixth centuries BC: Histria
to the north, Tomis in the centre (the present-day Constanta,
which is the main Romanian sea port, boasting an imposing
archaeological museum) and Callatis (the present-day Mangalia),
and also the monument from Adamclisi (100 km west). Besides the
ordinary cure factors, there are here natural lakes with
therapeutic mud. Lake Techirghiol is most appreciated and
several sanatoriums were built around it.
