Dolj

The Jiu River and the Danube plain define much of Dolj - fertile soils have long supported agriculture, while Craiova concentrates the county’s urban life, services and industry. Set in southwestern Romania’s Oltenia region, Dolj extends across broad lowlands to the Danube, which forms its southern border with Bulgaria. Craiova, the county seat, is known for Nicolae Romanescu Park and the University of Craiova, and its historic centre gives the city an important regional role. The Marin Sorescu National Theatre reflects a literary connection to the poet and dramatist born in Dolj. Beyond the city, fields, villages and river corridors shape daily life.
