The Danube Delta, largely north of Dobrogea, Romania and partly in Ukraine, is the second largest and best preserved of the European deltas. In 1991 it became UNESCO World Heritage, being classified as a biosphere reserve nationwide in Romania. The Danube Delta (except the secondary delta of the Chilia branch) is traditionally a part of Dobrogea, but in Antiquity and the Middle Ages the seaside was much more to the West (between Chilia veche and Murighiol in the time of Strabon, between Periprava and Dranov Lake in the Byzantine era) , So that the historical maps representing Dobrogea comprising the entire current Delta are almost false. The Danube Delta is framed in the Panonic and steppe region of Dobrogea and presents a natural area with floristic and fauna diversity, expressed at species level, terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. There are many tourist attractions, places of worship, historical monuments, archaeological sites, protected areas, natural areas on the territory and in the vicinity of the national park. Example:
-The Orthodox Church “Buna Vestire” – Tulcea, sec. XIX, historical monument.
-Roman camp Halmyris – Murighiol.
-Azizyie Mosque (Sultan Abdulaziz ) -Tulcea, the Muslim community’s worship place built in the 19th century , historical monument.
