Most of the people on this planet nether heard of Moldova! I heard of people going to Moldova, and after that being proud that they have been to a country of which noone heard!Of course I would like more people to find out about this small beutiful country... Most of the people who never heard of Moldova, when they first time hear something about Moldova say: 'Pardon me, I'm not strong in geography, is it somewhere in Africa?'Sure it is, just check this map!:)
The country with old traditions in Wine.The spirit of the country is in great people and there traditions. And one that traditions is wine.Practically anyone in this country have it's own wine! Even in the cities, in Chisinau there are cellars, the most common is under the garage. People generaly do not drink wine from the bottle, but from their own wooden (or know-days some metal) 'butoi'. If you go to Moldova your travel will be not only on surface but you will have to go down to the cellars often too!! :)Even more then 2000 years ago it is known that the ancestors of know-days local Moldovan's (Romanians) - Geto-Dac's, and in this specific region (our-days Republic of Moldova or also known as Basarabia) - Tiraget's where cultivating the vineyards here on the banks of Nistru (Dniester) River. Note: Old greek name for the river - Tiras.The pants on the Nistru River are perfect for wine...
Dear friends! Please, don't rate this page, I don't expect that. This page is not helpful for your travels at all. But if I understand the purpose of VT rightly, we can share stories as well, so I decided to do so. With respect, Natalia.
visit the Capital of Moldova, Chishinau, and contemplate it's streats and parks. When I am away from Moldova, I always miss the people who live here, because you can never meet such people anywhere else in the world.
When visiting Chisinau, you MUST see the band Zdob si Zdub. They are a most incredible Moldavian/Hard Rock band. They perfectly blend the two polar opposite styles of music. They Rock!Moldova in general needs to be taken in with a long breath. It is a rich land. Visit some farms, taste the excellent wine...If in the east, visit the monastaries on the Dniestr River. They are awesome. I have a wonderful memory of the Centru district in Chisinau. It is the cultural melting point of Russian and Moldavian cultures. It makes one think that they have traveled into the past but remained fixed on the modern world. The Centru District is a great example of a nation that is trying to be all that it can be.
One our way to the Cave Monastery, we passed by this village which is protected by three (3) natural barriers. The first is the river, the second is this hill from where I took this picture, and behind this is a mountain range.
WHO IS THAT BEHIND ME ?! (Besides Lenin...) Our group was closely supervised and it was not easy to have spontaneous contact with 'ordinary' people. Imagine my surprise when our 'watchers' turned up in the background of this photo! At the time I had thought I was alone...
Visit the capital Chisinau, peaceful city whit a lot of trees and parks, also you have to go to Cricova to see the wine cellar, whit near 80 km. of tunnels, there are also good restaurants not so expensive if you compare whit other countries in Europe. Other thing that can surprise you, are the discos (not the nigth clubs) whit male and female striptease shows.
