5 days in Chisinau Itinerary

Chișinău Etymology and namesThe origin of the city's name is unclear, but in one version, the name comes from the archaic Romanian word chișla (meaning "spring", "source of water") and nouă ("new"), because it was built around a small spring, at the corner of Pușkin and Albișoara streets.The other version, formulated by Ștefan Ciobanu, Romanian historian and academician, holds that the name was formed the same way as the name of Chișineu (alternative spelling: Chișinău) in Western Romania, near the border with Hungary. Your day by day itinerary now includes Bucuria, Piata Centrala, Malldova Shopping Mall, and other attractions you added. The adventure continues: admire the striking features of Triumphal Arch, don't miss a visit to Victory Memorial and Eternal Flame, walk around Stefan cel Mare Park, and learn about winemaking at Milestii Mici.
