Cerna sources - Iovan Iorgovan (Hercules) legend
The Cerna River is a river in Romania. The Cerna has its source on the south-east side of the Godeanu Mountains and flows into the Danube. The upper reach of the river is sometimes called Cernişoara River. With a basin of 1433 square km and a length of 84 km, it carves an erosive tectonic valley with numerous gorges, quite deep sometimes. There is a man-made lake on it (Tierna), just before it crosses the Băile Herculane spa.

Serbia, viewed from Romania
The friendship between the Romanians and Serbians from the border of the Danube is an organic friendship. Maybe the Romanians from the Mehedinti county cannot explain themselves this, but they feel more friends with the Serbians from the Danube villages and cities than with other regions from Romania. It is about centuries of common life. You can see in Drobeta Turnu Severin more frequently a Serbian from Negotin than an habitant of Bucharest or Moldavia. Here, the borders was always just a formal, not a real wall between the two areas.
