the danube delta museum

TouringRomania

If you are in Tulcea City, a good choice to have a look what Danube Delta is about is to visit this museum. It will be a good introduction into the wild life of Danube Delta. Great experience !

The museum gives an overview of the fauna & flora of the Danube delta, but everything is mixed with aquaria with exotic and exogenous species. It is all a bit confusing.But if you are in Tulcea, it is worth a visit.

They have some big and impressive aquarium. A lot of fishes. Aquarium bigger than a room !!! I must come back some day in future.

This is a small but interesting museum. First of all, it is completely modern - probably recently built or completely redecorated. There is information in English too. The exposition is mainly about the fauna and flora of Danube delta, about formation of the delta, traditional professions in the delta. The aquarium, though, contains a lot of exotic fish (and turtles), not living here, some of them so colourful and beautiful. The aquarium is not very huge but several kinds of fish, I am quite sure I never saw before, despite having visited several much more famous and much larger aquariums. I am sure it must be a fun for children to visit this place, and they will not get tired or bored, as it is indeed not big. The place is located on 3 floors (ground, underground, and 1st floor) and there are stairs, but I have seen a special lift too. I am not sure if it reaches the underground floor with the aquarium though.I do not have contact data of this place, because I visited it as a part of a package tour.

The museum is small, but very nice. It has a few sections: the actual museum, a movies room and an aquarium. We loved the aquarium. It displays fish from the Danube river, the Delta and from other parts of the world. It is worth seeing.

This newly built or at least fully restaurated museum gives anexcellent insight to the history of the delta region and shows you over three airy floor the birds, animals and fish of the region. Probably EU money helped. Before your boat trip on the delta you can see what to look out for: how do i recognoze a pelican or a small versus a normal size cormoran. Have you not seen enough animals on your trip you can see the stuffed versions in the museum.

Is a brief review of the Danube Delta region, revealing habits, places that few people are aware of and also a brief review of the wildlife.

We did not expect to see such a great museum in a little town such as Tulcea. The museum seems recently renovated/updated to include lots of interactive displays and as such it is very informative and definitely not a boring, stodgy museum.It gives you a much better understanding of what the Delta is all about, how it came to be, about the plants and animals there, the life of the inhabitants. Very interesting!There's also a number of great fish-tanks with a large variety of species.Must visit if you're in Tulcea!

If you enjoy aquariums you will enjoy the three floors of displays.I was ready to leave after 30 minutes where my wife wanted a few more hours. After a short walk along the boardwalk and a few more steps up a street is the modern three story building. The lower floor is where the fish tanks, are located...some have English write-ups but not all. The ground floor is the delta information and video on a loop with English subtitles. Upstairs one will find static displays on fishing and harbours ecosystem displays. The aquarium has much information and is a nice building ....grand marble stairways to each floor, but there is an elevator. The cost is 5 lei or 15 for adults. A guided tour will cost 100 or the video for 40...

The museum is small , but very well organized and certainly more beautiful than I expected ! What we saw and discovered there about Danube Delta was like an useful introduction for all amazing things we have seen in our live trip trough the Danube channels in the next days!
