Next, you’ll pass through Veliki Kazan, or Big Boiler, where the Danube reaches its deepest point. Here, you’ll learn about the fascinating history of how boats once waited for safe passage before the invention of radio communication.

As you continue your journey, feast your eyes on the impressive Rock Sculpture of Decebalus on the Romanian side of the river. This massive carving of the Dacian king stands as a testament to the ancient rivalry between the Dacian people, the ancestors of modern Romanians, and the Roman Empire.

Your tour concludes with a visit to Trajan's Plaque, an ancient Roman memorial dating back to the 2nd century AD. This plaque commemorates the completion of a Roman road along the Danube, a remarkable feat of engineering.
