Chisinau, the capital of Moldova
Chisinau is a good place to start any visit to Moldova.

Wander Chisinau’s streets and you’ll find diverse architecture, including 19th century buildings, grand Soviet architecture built from white limestone and modern urban design. Add to this a large selection of quality restaurants, hotels, wine bars, local fashion, breweries, and shopping and you’ll see how Chisinau has it all, often at lower cost than many other European cities, for a relaxing, fun and different city break. The Visit Chisinau official website also has lots of information on what to do and see in Chisinau, including audio guides for all the major sites.
