Travel to Moldova And Enjoy These Fascinating Activities

Before separating and becoming an independent state in 1991, Moldova was part of the USSR. Bordering Ukraine and Romania, Moldova is small but has a rich offering in terms of tourism. But what has contributed to the country's rise to become a leading tourist destination? Take a look at some of the factors that have contributed to Moldova becoming a respected player in the tourism industry.

 

Moldova is very well-known for its cognacs and wines. Due to the hot climate, wines from Moldova are known for their sweet taste while the cognacs are very wild, much wilder than what you will find in other countries. It is only in Moldova where you can get the chance to taste wine that is as old as you are. One of the best wineries in the country is the Cricova winery, situated about 15 kilometers from the capital, Chisinau. Besides that, wines produced in this country have pristine quality because of the country's damp and cold climate.

 

If you are a fan of art, then you are fully covered when you visit this beautiful country. One of the best museums in Moldova is Alexander Pushkin House and museum which was used by the legendary poet Pushkin. During his stay here, Pushkin wrote many of his famous poems here and was considered a member of the Romanian elite writers. Book here at http://myplanettour.com.

 

If you love nature and you visit Moldova, taking a trip to the famous Codrii Reserve is worth every penny. The reserve is home to some of the best collection of flora and fauna in Moldova and attracts thousands of visitors annually. According to approximates, up to a half of Moldova's floral population is concentrated here. Just like any other reserve out there, everybody needs permission to access the park.

Back to wineries, another must-visit winery when visiting Moldova is Acorex, another beautiful winery boasting of excellent vineyards where you can treat yourself to some of the most exotic and rare wines at a fair price. Sticking to international standards, Acorex is known for producing top-notch wines. While you can organize a visit here through a travel agency, a cheaper way would be by using a bus.

 

Visiting Moldova would not be a complete experience without visiting Chisinau, the capital city. It could be the only city to visit in the country but Chisinau has wine tours in Moldova to offer tourists. There are many entertainment spots to choose from in the city, not to mention nature parks that dot it. While the locals mostly speak Russian, you will not have communication problems because there are many locals who speak English.
