Short description of Chișinău

Chișinău is the capital of Moldova and where essentially every visitor to one of the least visited countries in Europe begins. The centre was rebuilt after the war on a grid of wide boulevards under lime trees, and the city has more park than most of its size, with a chain of lakes running through the middle. A triumphal arch, a cathedral and the government building face each other across the main square. What people actually come for is usually underground and outside the city, in the wine cellars.
