The Danube Delta is a wonderful place, a Natural Biosphere Reserve, which contains a unique mix of flora and fauna. It is declared a protected area of world interest and is the largest wetland in Europe. Delta is a very difficult to access and very sparsely populated area, devoid of industrial activities, with a population consisting mainly of Lipovans, Haholi and Romanians whose basic occupations are fishing and animal breeding.
