While not a thriving tourist destination yet, there are a few places that are “must see” if you visit this city in Moldova..
The number one, and by far the most well kept, site is the Metropolitan Cathedral “Nativity of the Lord”..
which is located, oddly enough, in the center of Cathedral Park… The original bell tower was demolished in the ’60’s but rebuilt in 1998..
At the main entrance to the the park sits the Arc de Triumf…
The Presidential Palace, towering over the center of the city, is a short walk away…
The main train station is considered by many to be one of the prettier buildings in town.. The guards told us we couldn’t take picture inside..not sure why but, you know how security guards can be..
Like I said before, not a bad place for a weekend get-a-way…
Parks and monuments in Moldova coming soon…
Happy Travels!
