Constanța

Few cities on Romania’s Black Sea coast have a history as closely tied to the ancient Greek colony of Tomis as Constanța. The city grew into the Roman port of Tomis, where the poet Ovid was sent into exile by Augustus in AD 8; Ovid Square still carries his name. Its waterfront combines the Art Nouveau Constanța Casino with broad promenades along the Black Sea, while the Roman Mosaic Edifice recalls the trading life of late antiquity. Constanța is also home to Romania’s principal Black Sea port, lending a working maritime character to the city beyond its resort districts.
