Historic center of Chișinău, Historic district on seven hills, Moldova.

The historic center of Chișinău extends along the Bâc River valley, featuring neoclassical buildings, religious structures, and administrative complexes from different periods.

The area gained prominence after 1812 when Chișinău became the administrative center of Bessarabia under Russian control, leading to substantial urban development.

The district contains the Nativity Cathedral, built between 1830 and 1836, representing a mix of Russian Empire architecture and Moldovan religious traditions.

The central location provides access to government buildings, museums, churches, and public transportation connections throughout the Stefan cel Mare Boulevard.

The Măzărache Church, dating from 1752, remains the oldest preserved structure in Chișinău and exhibits medieval Moldovan architectural elements.
