Ialomița County

A lowland county in the southeast, spread across the endless Baragan plain, where fields of wheat and sunflowers dissolve into the horizon. Ialomita is farming country through and through, cut by the river that gives it its name and bordered to the south by the Danube.

Tourism here is quiet and restorative: Lake Amara, a spa resort known for its sapropelic mud and salt waters, draws visitors seeking treatment and calm. The county seat, Slobozia, is a plains town with a deep agricultural heritage, a gateway to the wide horizons of the Baragan and the banks of the Danube.
