Our last major stop for the trip is at Dinogetia fortress which seems forgotten and abandoned with ruined sections accessible via overgrown paths

Stopping in Niculitel we visit the impressive Paleochristian Basilica housed in a modern building

We make a brief stop at the large Celic Dere Monastery one of the more famous ones in Dobrogea before buying some good Dobrogean wine

The Tulcea History Museum is larger than expected with many interesting exhibits including the objects found in treasure hoards throughout the county

We spend a few hours exploring Letea from an open truck seeing the old forest and the dunes as well as the famous wild horses

Today it is the day to explore the Danube Delta passing through innumerable canals and seeing lots of birds while enjoying the beautiful nature

We end the day at the northernmost point of the Roman limes Halmyris a major fortress for hundreds of years

On the way up the coast we stop at the only surviving Genovese fortress on the coast Enisala fortress on a special location on top of the hill

On the way north we stop at a ruin that we know little about but the Argamum ruins are worth the stop with great views and some nice ruins at a cost of free

With the Histria ruins closed we visit the nearby weird buried Orthodox church built that way to follow the Ottoman rules at the time
