Moldova Travel
While the Moldova travel industry may be less developed than those in other European nations, Moldova still holds some unique travel alternatives for the adventuresome traveler.
First and foremost, Moldova travel is heaven for any wine connoisseur:
Located on the steppe to the Carpathian Mountain range, it is a nation of rolling green hills, quaint little villages and acre after acre of vineyards.
Moldova produces a variety of excellent wines, many of which sell in local stores for the mere price of a bottle of cola. Enjoy the annual Wine Festival every autumn, explore the old tradition of winemaking on tours to famous wineries, and visit the world’s largest wine cellars at CRICOVA.
For the history enthusiast, Moldova offers a step back in time to the bygone days of the Soviet Union and medieval castles. Roughly 65 kilometers southeast of Chisinau in Moldova's break-away Transnistria Region, the city of Tiraspol is considered to be a living museum of Soviet culture. Further to the north near the Ukrainian border you can find the well-preserved medieval Soroca Fortress, erected during the rule of Stephan the Great.
Finally for good times and night life, Moldova’s capital has a world class reputation. Chisinau has developed an extensive nightlife with futuristic super-clubs and discos that challenge the finest nightclubs of Western Europe and America.
