Danube Delta, Wetland biosphere reserve in eastern Romania.

The Danube Delta spreads across 2,200 square miles of rivers, canals, marshes, lakes, and reed islands at the Black Sea meeting point.

Archaeological evidence shows Greek and Roman settlements in the delta region, where ancient trade routes connected Europe with oriental markets.

The delta's 15,000 residents maintain traditional fishing practices across 28 villages, preparing regional specialties from local fish catches.

Visitors access the delta through Tulcea city, where boats depart daily for exploration trips through the waterways and nature reserves.

The region contains the third highest biodiversity level worldwide, supporting 5,500 flora and fauna species, including Europe's largest white pelican colony.
