Chișinău, Capital city in central Moldova.
The metropolis stretches along the Bâcu River banks at 85 meters elevation, incorporating wide boulevards, public squares, and residential neighborhoods across multiple terraces.
The settlement emerged in 1436 as a monastery village within the Principality of Moldavia, later developing into an administrative center under Russian control from 1812.
The National Museum of History maintains a collection of 236,000 exhibits documenting the regional heritage through artifacts, documents, and traditional objects.
The municipal transportation network includes trolleybuses, buses, and minibuses that connect the five administrative sectors with the central railway station.
The National Wine Festival takes place each October, demonstrating Moldova's wine production methods that date back to 3,000 BCE.
