About this experience
What to expect
On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll explore Chișinău through the eyes of a local, visiting historic monuments, elegant parks, and architectural treasures. You’ll also hear about the personalities and events that shaped this unique Eastern European capital. Moldova’s capital city is a blend of Soviet grandeur, Romanian heritage, and surprising local stories waiting to be discovered. This audio tour starts at the Main Post Office at “Kilometer 0,” the point from which all distances in Moldova are measured. You’ll stroll through the elegant Cathedral Park to see its Orthodox cathedral and bell tower, and pass the grand Triumphal Arch. Along the way, you’ll find out how Russian, Romanian, and Soviet influences have shaped Chișinău’s identity through the centuries. The tour ends in a spot adjacent to the historic Chisinau City Hall building and the impressive Organ Hall, originally installed because the daughter of a Soviet leader wanted to study organ music.
