Romania is one of the most fascinating countries on the planet.
Too bad Ceaucescu decimated the hell out of the gothic quarter.

Galati, read Galatzi, a city by the river Danube, home of Sidex, one of the largest steel plants in Europe!

Iasi, read Iashi, "capital" of the historic region of Moldova! Not to be mistaken for Chisinau, the capital of the Republic Of Moldova, which is another country!

The large building in the middle of this shot is The Palace Of Culture in Iasi, subjectively speaking, one of the most impresive old buildings in Europe!

Ok, here are some shots of both cities!!
We are of latin descendence, but I'm not sure what you mean by latinity, because the cities in Romania are anything but latin inspired! We were under turk (otoman) and habsburg (austro-hungarian) rule for hundreds of years! They brought their culture and architecture to the land! So, if you want a comparison, Timisoara is austrian and hungarian (german or saxon and the secui) built and Constanta was under otoman rule for literaly hundreds of years, it has mosks and islamic inspired buildings! Furthermore, the communist regime demolished a great part of this legacy to build flats! Some venetian merchants did indeed settle in Timisoara centuries ago and there are some Venetian architecture buildings there! I guess that was the history lesson!
This is Timisoara!!
