    TOP SOVIET ERA EXPERIENCES IN MOLDOVA DAY 1 Day 1: Arrival day and Chisinau city tour On arrival at Chisinau International Airport, you will be transferred to your accommodation in Chisinau. After settling in, you will enjoy the city tour of Chisinau. During the tour, you will discover the main historical and cultural sights such as the Nativity of Christ Cathedral, the Bell Tower, the Arch of Triumph, the Monument of Stephen the Great, etc. You will also see some soviet buildings and apartment blocks, such as Circus building, Romanita Collective Housing Tower, Library din Hol, Soviet Memorial to Communist Youth, Chisinau Hotel (an excellent example of Stalinist Empire style architecture), etc. After lunch, you will have an excursion at the Eternity Memorial Complex and the Military Museum. The Eternity Memorial Complex is a memorial located in Chisinau dedicated to soviet soldiers who died in the battles of the Second World War. The Military Museum has displays of Moldova's past military campaigns and, in a park outside, a small open-air military exhibition displaying Soviet- made tanks, fighter planes and other military toys inherited by Moldova's armed forces. Next, you will have an excursion at Chisinau Railway Station built on 15 August 1871. The 2nd World War destroyed the station building, as it was blown up by the Red army in 1941. It was partially restored in 1944, but air attacks destroyed it once again. In 1948, the station was rebuilt. In 1990 at the Station’s Square there was unveiled a temporary stone commemorating the Victims of Stalinist Repression and mass deportations in Soviet Moldova in 1940-1951 - the Train of Pain.

  • Country Profiles on Housing and Land Management
    INTRODUCTION The Republic of Moldova is a landlocked country covering a territory of 33,800 km2. It is bordered on the west by Romania and on the north, east and south by the Ukraine (Annex I). The Prut River runs along the entire western boundary with Romania, while the Nistru River forms part of the eastern boundary with the Ukraine and separates it from Transnistria. The country’s southern border extends almost to the Black Sea, making it one of the countries located in the Black Sea Basin. The country’s proximity to the Black Sea gives it a temperate-continental climate. It has moderate winters and warm summers. Three quarters of its territory is covered with the rich, black soil called “chernozem”, which is ideal for agriculture. The landscape is characterized by hilly plains with many streams and rivers cutting through them. Government structure and political system The Republic of Moldova is a democratic and unitary State. Its Government is made up of three authorities: legislative, executive and judicial. The Parliament is the legislative authority and passes laws, decisions and motions; declares referendums; and approves and controls the national budget. The executive branch consists of the President and the Government. The President is the head of the State and is elected by the Parliament. The Government is the executive authority. It is led by a Prime Minister, who is appointed by the President with the approval of the Parliament. The Government carries out domestic and foreign policy. Judicial authority is exercised by the courts of law, namely by the Supreme Court of Justice, the Court of Appeal and other courts of law.
