Giurgiu County, Administrative division in southern Romania.

Located along the Danube River, Giurgiu County extends across 3,526 square kilometers of predominantly flat terrain with numerous small waterways and agricultural lands.

The county received its current administrative structure in 1981 during the Communist era, following territorial reorganizations of former Wallachian provinces and districts.

The county maintains traditional Romanian folk customs through local festivals, music performances by groups like Taraful Haiducilor, and regional celebrations in its 51 communes.

The Free Trade Zone and direct access to Bulgaria through the Friendship Bridge create substantial economic advantages for businesses operating in the region.

The Clock Tower in Giurgiu city stands as a central landmark, while the county connects Romania to Bulgaria across the Danube through major transportation routes.
