{{Geography of Romania}}
The '''Romanian Plain''' ({{lang-ro|Câmpia Română}}) is located in southern [[Romania]] and the easternmost tip of [[Serbia]]. Part of the [[Historical regions of Romania|historical region]] of [[Wallachia]], it is bordered by the [[Danube]] River in the east, south and west, and by the [[Getic Plateau]] in the north. [[Bucharest]], the capital of Romania, is located in the central part of the Romanian Plain. It is contiguous to the south with the [[Danubian Plain (Bulgaria)|Danubian Plain]] ({{lang-bg|''Дунавска равнина''}}), in [[Bulgaria]]. This area is also sometimes referred to as the Danubian Plain ''(Câmpia Dunării)'' in Romanian, though this designation is not specific, because the Danube flows through a number of plains along its course, such as the Hungarian Plain (which is called Danubian Plain in Slovakia and Serbia) as well as the Bavarian Lowland, also called Danubian plain.
