Europe's second-longest river (only the Volga surpasses it in length) flows through or touches upon the borders of ten countries and four of the continent's capital cities, including Budapest and Belgrade. Originating in Germany's Black Forest, the Danube stretches southeast for nearly 1,800 miles before emptying into the Black Sea via its delta, which is situated on the banks of both Romania and Ukraine.
Prominent points of interest along the Danube include Austria's picturesque Wachau Valley, home to ancient monasteries and rolling vineyards, and the Iron Gates gorge, which serves as part of the boundary between Romania and Serbia.
