Comrat, Capital city of Gagauzia, Moldova.

Located on the Ialpug River in southern Moldova, Comrat extends across a valley with traditional architecture and wide streets lined with administrative buildings.

The Russian government initiated a resettlement program in 1819 that transformed Comrat from a small settlement into a growing regional center.

The Regional History Museum in Comrat contains extensive collections of Gagauz artifacts, traditional textiles, and documents presenting the local Turkish-speaking population.

Regular marshrutkas connect Comrat with Chisinau, departing every hour from the central bus station and completing the journey in approximately 90 minutes.

The Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist contains religious paintings that combine Orthodox Christian imagery with elements of Gagauz folk traditions.
