29 km west of Tulcea (go by bus or car) is Niculiţel, a village of vineyards, famous for the Christian basilica built in 370 AD during the reign of Emperor Valerius. In 1971, a strong rain washed away the earth concealing the church, revealing a unique monument - the crypt housing the relics of four martyrs (Zotikos, Attalos, Kamasis, and Phillipos). The four coffins are now held at Cocos Monastery.
