They begin in the northwest, in southern Poland, Slovakia, northern Hungary, and southwestern Ukraine, continue southeastward toward the delta of the Danube, then arc strongly around Bra ş ov and extend westward parallel to the Danube, fading out north of the Iron Gates and on to the plains of Banat. The southern portion is sometimes referred to as the Transylvanian Alps, because it helps to enclose Transylvania within the arc of the Carpathians and separate it from the Danube river valley. These mountains form a continuous and important topographic feature of southeastern Europe, and in fact of Europe as a whole.engbook part
