Retezat massif

"Perfectly explainable natural phenomena" geologists say about most of the natural wonders of Romania.

It probably is. But Retezatul has 90 plant species not found anywhere in the world and is best preserved delta in Europe, while in Apuseni is the largest karst phenomenon in Europe.

And all are found in a single country.  National Park Retezat missed the entrance

to the natural wonders of the world, but it

is a dream destination.

Sphinx

Located at 2216 m on the Bucegi Plateau,

attractive human form which nature has

carved over time. However, the nature of

the content to only that, if breathed on it

and a bit of personality.

Well positioned, with a look rough, it gives

the impression that oversees those lands.

Babele

Strange and interesting Babele attract tourists because of their unique shape. On this plateau, nature has shaped almost all of the surrounding rocks, but still has work to give them the final. Old women have the appearance of giant mushrooms, but maybe in a 300 years our descendants will be able to distinguish the silhouettes of ladies. Over time, around the Sphinx and Babe were weaving legends and have turned dozens of theories mythological, funny or just fun. Some say that it would be natural, but modeled with grace and man-interest, others that "stones" at the top of the mountain exudes positive energy unprecedented enemies who defended the country and the most "original" claim to be traces of an alien civilization.

The Danube Delta

An exotic, with more than 1,200 species of trees and plants, with the richest ornithological and ichthyological fauna, the Danube Delta is the largest wetland reserve lands of Europe, covering an area of over 2,500 km2. In 1991, UNESCO included the Danube Delta, the newest form of relief from Romania, free from "the progress of industrialization", including biosphere reserves. Delta area increase by 40 meters by submitting the 60 million tons of silt brought by the river.

Gura Portiţei

Portiţei is probably the last unspoiled beach on the Romanian coast.

To get there, you must go by ferry an hour, but it is unlike any other beach, especially since they left is found in the fresh water of the Danube Delta. In June, the turtles lay their eggs on the beach you can see whole flocks that wander freely, undisturbed by tourists attention. Everyone who visited Portiţei, a narrow strip of sand, left there thinking that they would return in one of the most beautiful places in the Danube Delta.

Muddy Volcanoes

Type geological nature reserve on 30 hectares large, mud volcanoes are located in the Curvature Sub-Carpathians. (Buzau) formations arose due to eruptions of gas to the surface of the earth which causes mud and water. The area is known as mist, but within them as similar processes occur in real volcanoes. Cones do not exceed 5-6 meters high, and so-called lava is thrown

on a small area.

Once in the mud volcano, tourists are surprised by an unusual sensation. When it is cloudy, arid plateau with millions of torrents crack and separate deep ridge resembles a lunar landscape. Or if the sun appears, instead appears fully detached African desert, as the mud dried immediately turns from green to yellow.In fact, mud is nothing but a mixture of sandstone, quartzite, ghipsuri, clays, limestone and traces of oil, natural gas driven from the depths coming from more than 3,000 feet deep and passing through a clay soil, combining water into the groundwater. Beyond the area with craters, this land seemingly hostile vegetation is surrounded by a green explosion wildlife. Lilac grove Muddy Volcanoes located inside the reserve is perhaps as beautiful and interesting as volcanoes themselves.

Fortress of Ponor

Apuseni Mountains is the most

impressive karst phenomenon in South East. A mountain of stone 76 meters is based on a pure water ice that has found refuge here 10,000 years ago.

 Everest called Romanian Speleology, Cave Fortress of Ponor has a main gallery 2 km long, active, where perhaps the largest underground river in the country flowing forming waterfalls, rapids and whirlpools.
