Pleading for the capital of Moldova: you can walk through 500 years of history. You can admire historical buildings and monuments, parks and churches, condensed into a generous complex of urban systematization initiated in the 19th century. You can meditate in the cathedral whose bell tower, demolished by Soviet power, was rebuilt in 1997. The panorama of the "White City" – a name that was bestowed upon the city due to the limestone used in the construction of buildings - still includes typical communist era buildings. However, new samples of modern architecture like the SkyTower, Kentford or the Union Fenosa send signals to the future with the same proud and optimistic allure, like the sensation you get of this capital drawn in stone and history.
