About
PREAMBLE: All itineraries by car through Tulcea county promoted in our application start from the heart of the city (Civic Square) and return to the center (at the cathedral). Details of distances and times are given below. Some of the attractions are visitable, and others that are on the route can simply be admired either from a distance or with short detours from the main route. Everyone will be free to decide according to their own taste and interest. But it's good to know that all tourist attractions tell their own story, which is also the reason why we included in the itinerary places more or less known to the general public.
DIRECTIONS AND ORIENTATION: This tourist route first passes by the Traditional Fishing Village of Tulcea. If you haven't already visited it, it's worth it. Then he arrives in Malcoci, once one of the most important ethnic communities in the entire county thanks to the German population. The itinerary continues through the town of Victoria. In the center, right on the street, is the "Entrance of the Mother of God into the Church" Church, dating from the end of the 19th century. Beștepe and Mahmudia follow, two settlements with Turkish names. Passing Murighiol, one of the most important and touristic localities in the entire county, you will reach the main attraction of this itinerary: Halmyris Fortress. Set aside at least an hour for this place! From here you can continue "to the end of the road", i.e. to Dunăvătu de Jos, where the road ends and where the channels to the heart of the delta begin. On the way back you will pass by the Murighiol salt pans. And at the end of the tour you will admire the peaks of Agighiol, hills with reservation status and on which a real treasure was discovered.
DISTANCE AND TIMES: 90 km (circular route) / 1h and 30min actual drive and approximately 7-8h with visits, breaks and possibly lunch.
