Bechet is a town in Dolj County, Oltenia, Romania, on the river Danube, opposite the Bulgarian city of Oryahovo.

At the 2021 census, the town had a population of 4,355, of which 77.98% were Romanians and 18.37% Roma.

[3] At Bechet Port, there is a 126.5 m (415 ft) tall unused electricity pylon, which is the tallest such structure in Romania.

The pylon was built in 1967 as part of the Danube crossing of the 220 kV-line Ișalnița–Kozloduy; since the demolition of this line, this is the only relic of it.
