Galați, Port city in eastern Romania

The city extends along the left bank of the Danube River, occupying 246 square kilometers with an elevation of 55 meters above sea level.

The settlement received its first official documentation in 1445, developing from ancient Dacian establishments that existed in the 6th and 5th centuries BCE.

The Nae Leonard National Theatre and Fani Tardini Drama Theatre present regular performances, maintaining the theatrical traditions of eastern Romania.

The steel factory, naval shipyard, and river port form the industrial core of the city, providing employment opportunities for local residents.

Lake Brateș, adjacent to the city, represents the largest freshwater lake in Romania, supporting fishing activities and water-based recreation.
