Chisinau, the pulsating core of the Republic of Moldova, was greatly destroyed during WWII and later restored by the Russians, inheriting its Soviet-style structures and Stalinist-inspired architecture along its chief thoroughfares. Discover some remaining pre-WWII edifices, savor the local cuisine at trendy cafes, bars and restaurants, or sample famed local wines at one of the numerous city wineries. You can also hunt for antiques in Arbat. Key attractions to explore in Chisinau include the park and monument dedicated to Stephen the Great, a renowned medieval hero; the unique, open-book designed Parliament Building; the Presidential Palace, the epicenter of 2009’s demonstrations; Milestii Mici Wine store, home to globally acclaimed local wines; the City Hall, an early 20th-century Italian Gothic architectural marvel, among its few remaining counterparts, and many more areas of interest.
