For the summer season and not only, a visit to the Black Sea, respectively Constanta, is the perfect way to spend one or several days.
Constanta is a charming city on the shore of the Black Sea, located at a distance of approximately 220 km from Bucharest. In Constanta you can stroll on the sea front, enjoy a drink in the port, you could sun bathe or visit one of the numerous wonderful places hidden in this city.
The Casino in Constanta is, certainly, the symbol of the city, being forever present in the pictures of the tourists, being over 130 years old. The headstone of the Casino was laid in 1880 and represented at the time the meeting place of the elites, sailor and tourists. The Casino held two game halls, one dance hall and two reading halls. But unfortunately, in 1891, the casino was destroyed by a very heavy storm, and the City Hall decided to build a new one that was inaugurated two years later, in 1893.

What To Expect
Cazinoul Constanta
The Constanța Casino is a casino located in Constanța, Romania. It has been designated by the Romanian Ministry of Culture and National Patrimony as a historic monument. The casino is on the Constanta boardwalk at 2 Elisabeta Boulevard along the Black Sea in the historic Peninsulă District of the city. The casino was built three separate times, with the first structure being erected of wood in 1880. It was designed to be a club and community center for elite and upper-class socialites willing to spend. Once considered Romania's Monte Carlo and a symbol of the City of Constanța, the most-recent and modern version was built in Art Nouveau style, also being the most important Art Nouveau building in the country, designed and built according to the plans of Daniel Renard and inaugurated in August 1910. The most modern version of the Casino was in operation for 38 years, with interruption due to the two world wars, attacked and bombed by Bulgarian and German troops in World War I, ravaged in World War II and, at one point, acted as a makeshift wartime hospital. In 1948 it was taken over by the Communist government becoming a House of Culture (Casa de Cultură a Sindicatelor) for the party until 1960 when it was handed to the National Office of Tourism Oficiul National de Turism (ONT). The last major repairs took place in 1986-1988, and the building is currently abandoned.
The Roman Edifice with Mosaic
Is a museum in Constanta, discovered during the works carried out in 1959 in the historical center of Constanta. The edifice, with nearly 2,000 square meters of mosaic, erected in the 4th century BC, probably under the reign of Emperor Constantine the Great, instead of previous harbor buildings, was repaired in various stages until the beginning of the 7th century, when ends his life with the departure of the ancient city of Tomis, following the great invasions.

5.00We were blessed with nice weather which made it a very pleasant day by the water. This is very flexible day in Constanta so your tour guide will cater to your parameters. From our perspective, the Casino was not worth 10 euros. Going up the mosque minaret provided excellent views and mosaic exhibition was impressive. Our tour guide, Alin, was wonderful and spoke English well. He made sure to take us to the beach and let us walk in the Black Sea and took us to an amazing local restaurant by the water that is popular with the locals away from the tourist. Alin definitely made sure to address our specific requests which made for an awesome experience.
Well worth the trip.

5.00Bogdan was very helpful. He gave us a lot of information and made helpful suggestions not only for this tour, but in general for our stay in Romania. We enjoyed our visit to Constanta. It was well worth the trip. The Casino was amazing, as were the Orthodox Cathedral and the Roman mosaic.

5.00Alin is a wonderful guide! He led us through beautiful Constanța, while teaching about it's rich history from its humble beginning as a Greek fishing village to its current state as a hub of global trade. He was exceptionally courteous and considerate of our needs, and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible during the tour, and after. He is passionate about sharing Romanian culture with the world, and genuinely kind and thoughtful. Thank you, Alin!
Great day!
