About Obelisc

Obelisc is a landmark in Costinești, a Black Sea seaside resort on the Romanian coast. It is a good reference point for exploring the town on foot, and a handy stop if you are already walking around the resort.

Tips for your visit

  • Plan a short stop of 10 to 20 minutes for the landmark itself, and more if you want to walk the streets around it.
  • Visit in the morning or early evening in summer, when it is cooler and the light is softer for photos.
  • Costinești is a beach resort, so it is easy to combine the visit with a stroll along the seafront or a break by the sea.
