Itinerary
The city Bender also called Tighina is the second largest city in Transnistria that attracts thanks to its medieval fortress - one of the most powerful elements of the grandiose defensive system of medieval Moldova.
The village of Chitcani holds the largest religious architectural complex of the Republic of Moldova called Noul Neamt or "the daughter of the Neamt monastery in the Carpathians of ancient Moldova".
Tiraspol is considered the capital of Transnistria, a city that has preserved the Soviet symbols of its past with the monuments of Lenin, the administrative buildings of Soviet architecture and with the tank in the city center. This assumed nostalgia is reflected directly on the flag of the country which is unique in Europe.
