Solo travel experience

From the train station I walked to the sea. I stopped at Panda and had a placinta cu branza dulce, after which I took a walk on the beach. The weather was in my favor, sunny and not too windy. On the way back I passed through the center and by the casino.

Couple travel experience

It was a very romantic experience, getting to know the places of vampire legends was fascinating, the food is very, very good, I loved it. Everything seemed magical to me with castles and fortresses everywhere, and a nature that captivates you among its forests.

Local tips

Constanța it's represented by art nuveau architecture...it's a city placed at the Black Sea. With beautiful sand and perfect summer vibe. In May you feel the smell of linden everywhere and in winter it's the perfect time to chill and enjoy the silence but also to the view of the furious waves of the Black Sea
