Tiraspol, Capital city in Transnistria, Moldova.
Tiraspol extends along the eastern bank of the Dniester River, featuring wide boulevards, Soviet-era architecture, and multiple industrial facilities throughout the urban area.
Russian general Alexander Suvorov established Tiraspol in 1792 as a military stronghold, constructing a fortress to protect the newly acquired territories from the Ottoman Empire.
The central Suvorov Square displays military monuments, governmental buildings, and the Memorial of Glory commemorating soldiers who died during regional conflicts.
The city maintains its own currency, the Transnistrian ruble, while also accepting Moldovan lei and Russian rubles for daily transactions in stores and markets.
Tiraspol preserves Soviet symbols on public buildings, maintains Lenin statues in central locations, and uses the hammer and sickle on its city flag.
