County Ialomiţa
In Muntenia

Lovely Ialomiţa

Yes, it's a bit flat, and a bit swampy, but this quiet stretch between Bucharest and the Danube has bags of character!

Ialomiţa sports three main cities, the county seat of Slobozia (population 56,913),  Feteşti on the Danube, and Urziceni towards Bucharest.  There are four other towns, Amara,  Căzăneşti, Fierbinţi-Târg, and Ţăndărei, along with 57 communes and many villages.

  Communications

Car license plates start with IL, and the area code for dialling is (x43)

Dialling Constanţa

All of the phone numbers in Constanţa start with (0243) or (0343), depending on whether the service is through the old state-run operator RomTelecom, or from one of the newer entrants into the market in Romania.

Dailling to Constanţa, you must remove any leading zero from the county code portion of the phone number, so that (0243) becomes (243).   Dialling a mobile number, you do the same, dropping the zero from the (07XX) part of the number, to make it (7XX).   Both landlines and mobiles have 6 digits following the initial county code. 
 For full dialling information and a chart of county codes, see our Dialling Romania section here

Ialomiţa HotSpot

Stop at Slobozia

Halfway along the rich and fertile wide alluvial plains between Bucharest and the Danube River is regional centre Slobozia.  If you're heading to or from the Romanian Riviera and need to stop, you can be connected within 15 minutes of the freeway. Frankly, the drive from Slobozia on the old highway crossing the Danube on a fun old bridge and going by the Constanţa airport is alot more scenic anyways.
Stil Invest, 27 Matei Basarab Street in Slobozia Right along the main drag, this business offers free wireless to those in need.  Stop into Slobozia from the Freeway of the Sun, quick and convenient (adds a half hour to your trip) +40 (243) 234 164  FAX: +40 (243) 234 164
