    Great history!
    This place is a gem of history. When visiting Sulina would be a great reward to see this cemetery of all nations ... or better said of a peaceful mix of confessions gathered in their common resting place. Orthodox of both Old and New Rites, Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Jewish, all are here in their quarters. You may see the graves of a Princess, a Pirate, a couple of young unfortunate English lovers lying together in their tombs as a genuine replica of the imaginary Romeo and Juliette love story, nobles and thieves, sailors and merchants, poor and rich, in an unique and unlikely congregation. Don't be shy in asking the locals for guidance!
