Parliament of Moldova

#bucketlistreboot Presidential Palace The building was originally built to be the new Supreme Soviet (Parliament), after the independence from the U.S.S.R. it became the Presidential Palace. It looks very similar, at least in architecture, to the Bulgarian Presidential Palace. Unlike the Presidential Palace in Bucharest, you can only visit this official residence once a year during the Open Day. Parliament of Moldova Opposite the Presidential Palace you can also notice the Parliament of Moldova. The architecture is soviet style and is typical for former communist countries. We didn’t think too much about the buildings but like we said they are conveniently placed on the boulevard #moldova #chisinau

National History Museum of Moldova

#bucketlistreboot The National History Museum Originally built as a lyceum, this then later became what it is today. The museum is structured into many scientific sections: Ancient History and Archaeology, Medieval History, History of Basarabia, Contemporary History, Treasures. The museum highlights artefacts that showcase a common heritage with Romania and the wider Romanian space as well as items from Soviet and Russian imperial rule. One thing we found very interesting is that whilst the objects are described i.e. this is a fountain pen, there aren’t any descriptions to explain the background behind those objects. So some background knowledge beforehand is needed to fully appreciate the museum and its artefacts. #moldova #chisinau

Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ's Nativity

#bucketlistreboot Nativity Cathedral and Cathedral Park Now this is a really nice park with plenty of willow trees and green spaces. In the middle of the park one can observe the white Nativity Cathedral. The Cathedral of Christ’s Nativity is the main cathedral of the Moldovan Orthodox Church in Central Chișinau. It was commissioned by the governor of New Russia, Prince Mikhail Vorontsov, and Metropolitan Gavril Bănulescu-Bodoni in 1830. Inside the cathedral one can notice typical Orthodox motifs with very impressive holy paintings. We really enjoyed taking a stroll through the park as well. We actually sat down at one of the outdoors coffee shops and enjoyed and nice hot cup of cappuccino. Yum! #moldova #chisinau
