1Valea Morilor Park

Park
Valea Morilor Park is a serene and leafy park located in Chisinau, Moldova. It was established in the 1950s as a Soviet-style Central Park of Culture and Rest, featuring a manmade lake that offers an artificial beach for swimming. The park is popular among locals and tourists for its tranquil atmosphere, walking paths, theater, playground, and small amusement park.
Just beautiful. As a tourist I really enjoyed my visits to this park. It has a very social but warm feel to it and it’s an ideal place to walk around, run around (as I did), or just sit and enjoy the calmness of the place. It seems to be a favourite amongst the locals, and rightfully so. The park is very well preserved and is clean. There are coffee shops along the way and places where one can buy food too. It’s a bit of a walk from the main area of Chişinău, but the efficiency and reliability of the public transport in the city makes it worth while for a visit.
Louis — Google review
A peaceful green space in the heart of Chisinau, perfect for a leisurely walk or quiet reflection. Locals come here with their families, kids, and even fishing poles — adding to the relaxed, lived-in vibe. The lake is the centerpiece, with tree-lined paths circling it and plenty of benches to take it all in. The cascading staircase leading down to the lake adds a touch of drama and charm. Not overly touristy — just an authentic slice of local life in motion.

The National Museum of Ethnography and Natural History is a well-known museum in Chisinau that showcases various exhibits on Moldovan culture, natural history, animals, old books and decorations. The museum has over 15 halls with an impressive collection on display. While there is no ethnographic project available on the premises, the museum boasts great architecture and a lovely garden.
Nice museum, is way bigger than it seems. There are many additional rooms underground. On many things you can find an englisch translation, we paid 25 lei per person if I remember correctly (students)
Zitronenbaum — Google review
No English, no narrative to what is presented, no clear ordering to rooms or exhibited items. 5000 year old fertility icons shown next to 400 year old coins, for some reason. I get it, it is an old museum (135 years old!), but it could and should be updated to modern standards. Certainly an e-guide would be helpful, and also offering better opportunities for photos (less glare-y glass!). The dinosaur/prehistoric animals sections are the best, and in general lots of cool things to see. It is still worth a visit for sure.

It is an interesting museum, but Art one is my favorite. However, this one has some very interesting rooms and exhibits. The women working there were nice. Cheap postcards - package of 32 for 1€ or smrh.

Very interesting place to visit with kids or as a couple. Adult ticket costs 10 lei, student ticket is 2 lei while the ticket for taking pictures is 15 lei. The museum is huge. I’ve never imagined that it’s so big, but it is. The animals are beautifully created and look incredibly real. The museum is big with lots of rooms depicting various historical eras and periods. It’s definitely worth visiting.

Very interesting museum. Enjoyed it a lot. If you are in Chisinau, it is definitely worth a visit. It's a shame that their aren't signs in English. My girlfriend had to translate a lot. So if you have a Moldovan of your own, definitely ask them to come with. They might also be able to add interesting stories.
Roel W — Google review
Total disappointment .This museum was my favourite place to visit many years ago in the times of Soviet Union. Now after years of reconstruction the exposition is much poorer. On the ground floor there are some petrified remains of ancient animals, mollusks, stones. A lot of objects are not even from this area(Uzbekistan ,Crimea, Tajikistan) and half of them are replicas. On the first floor there are some exhibits of flora and fauna, national costume, etc. I was expecting to see exhibits about winemaking, different grape varieties, etc. Nothing of the kind.(And this is just one example).
Oleg O — Google review
A small but beautiful museum. I especially recommend you to see if you are interested with weird animals. We were one adult and one student and we payed about 15 lei. Employees are nice and kind. I personally really liked the filled animals and the 3D Moldova map. I really wonder that what is the meaning of the skull and bones under the crosses?

Sights & Landmarks
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Eternity Memorial Complex is a significant and solemn site dedicated to soldiers who perished in World War II. The complex features a huge war memorial park with a massive monument and an eternal flame. Visitors can witness the changing of the guard ceremony, which is particularly moving during national holidays. Families often visit the park, enjoying its peaceful atmosphere and green spaces for children and dogs to play.
In contrast to the adjacent city cemetery, this place is a very open space, featuring mostly very large memorials. The main memorial is a group of stylised concrete rifles converging above the Eternal Flame. The plaza is flanked on one side by a group of imposing red bas reliefs. There are some stray dogs who live here, but they seem harmless.
Richard B — Google review
A striking and solemn tribute to Moldova’s fallen soldiers, especially those from World War II. We took a taxi from our hotel and asked the driver to wait, expecting a brief visit — but the monument draws you in. The central structure, shaped like a five-pointed star with an eternal flame, is surrounded by dramatic sculptural elements and commemorative walls that add context to the wartime sacrifices. While there were no ceremonial guards during our visit, the site is clean, quiet, and respectfully maintained. It’s more than a photo stop — it’s a place to pause, reflect, and absorb a somber part of the city’s history.
Sa S — Google review
A beautiful place built in the 20th century and it has a great history. If you want to understand the statues and symbols there, I think it is advisable to talk to a local guide from Chisinau in advance to help you understand the place and delve into its history.

The memorial in Chisinau is dedicated to soldiers who lost their lives during the wars. It is a solemn reminder of the sacrifices made. The site is maintained well, and it reflects Moldova’s commitment to honoring the memory of those who served. Chisinau # Chișinău # Moldova

The Eternity Memorial Chisinau is a memorial located in Chisinäu, Moldova capital. The memorial is located along Marshal Malinovsky Street. It is dedicated to Soviet soldiers who died in the Great Patriotic War. The monument was made on 1975 in honour of the Soviet soldiers. The central part of the memorial is a pyramid of five meter tall stone rifles. A 5-pointed star with an eternal flame in the center of the monument.

It's a lovely park and very quiet, perfect for mommies and their kids. It has a big green space for your dogs to run (but be sure to clean after them ) Very easy to get there by public trolley (9 or 13) can take them from the city center or you can walk. Amazing sunsets 😍

The Alexandru Ciubotaru National Botanical Garden, located in Chisinau, Moldova, is a sprawling 76-hectare green space featuring around 10,000 plant species from across the globe. Visitors can explore themed sections such as the arboretum, fruit garden, rose garden, and Japanese garden. The garden also boasts an 8-shaped lake where visitors can enjoy picnics and fishing.
A beautiful springtime respite from the the urban clamor. It was nice to watch the Moldovian people enjoying themselves: individuals walking pensively, couples with some quiet alone time, parents interacting with their children in positive ways, and groups of young people hanging out in a wholesome environment. If you come here, don't neglect to read the history of the gardens near the entrance on the right-hand side of the path.

Lovely garden located to the south east of Chișinău, which can be reached with the trolleybus nr. 22 from the city centre. The garden is very huge, with many trees and ponds with a lot of water birds including ducks. It also boasts other animals such as woodpeckers and squirrels. It's really nice if you want to relax, walk and rest among the lawns. Pity that some areas could not be visited. Entrance for adults is 10 lei.

Established in 1818 by the Russian Army Engineer Corps and later redesigned by architect Alexander Bernardazzi, this 17-acre park features landscaped gardens, monuments, and a large fountain.

The park is telling you the story.... Historic place, indeed and very popular too. Great spot for meeting and socialising with friends and family. Lovely atmosphere; welcoming bars and restaurants on your way, while walking along the alley surrounded by the memorial busts of the national heroes. Just have your cake and enjoy it.

Cathedral Park, home to the Nativity Cathedral, is a historical and culturally enriching destination in Chisinau. The neoclassical cathedral, dating back to 1830, serves as the main Moldovan Orthodox church. The park offers a serene atmosphere for relaxation and contemplation, with well-maintained grounds and a 'writers' alley' that delves into the literary history of the area.
Decorations for the orthodox Easter. This is the best time to admire the tulips which give the square a charming and colourful atmosphere. You can have a walk or relax on bench and enjoy your time with your family, children and friends.

A peaceful and well-kept green space in the center of Chișinău, anchored by the beautiful Nativity Cathedral and its freestanding bell tower. Locals gather here for strolls, chats, and quiet relaxation — you’ll see families, students, and even chess players tucked under the trees. The park offers a nice mix of manicured paths, shady benches, and open space with views of nearby government buildings and monuments. A great spot to get a feel for the city’s rhythm — especially around sunset when the golden light hits the cathedral’s white facade. Don’t miss the nearby Arch of Triumph, just a short walk across the road.

Zoo
Opened in 1978, Grădina Zoologică is a zoo that houses rare and endangered animals. It boasts a lake populated with waterfowl and an aviary. Covering a vast area, this impressive establishment showcases various creatures including eagles, lions, and capybaras. With its well-maintained facilities and pleasant ambiance, visitors can enjoy the zoo's diverse offerings at affordable prices.
Nice place, although I'll suggest going there in cooler weather. I was here 9 years ago, it had more entertaining things for kids.

Chisinau Zoo is a nice place to visit. Clean, well-kept, and with a decent variety of animals. I had a good time walking around. That said, I’d love to see some of the animals have bigger enclosures to feel more comfortable.

Deeply disappointing. Chisinau Zoo feels like a relic of a bygone era—a post-Soviet prison camp for animals, not a sanctuary. The cages are stark, the eyes behind the bars lifeless. The only creature that stirred a sense of joy was a free crow, splashing in a puddle before soaring into the sky, untethered. It was a quiet reminder: freedom cannot be traded for daily meals. No enclosure, however clean or well-fed, can replace the dignity of the wild.

Paul S — Google review
We must count that this Zoo, after all, is not in a rich country. So don't expect large places for animals and many species. Unfortunately many animals are still in cages. They have lions, snow leopard, wolves, bears. Entrance fee is just 1.5 € ! The zoo was clean, they do their best. My 4* rating is accounting all of this. Was worth visiting.

Atrium is a bustling shopping mall that offers a diverse range of retailers, dining options, and entertainment for families. The modern and upscale ambiance creates a shopper's paradise with its stunning architecture featuring large atriums that allow natural light to fill the space. Despite some feedback about high prices in certain stores and occasional encounters with less-than-friendly shop owners, Atrium provides a well-organized layout for easy navigation between fashion boutiques, electronics stores, and more.
Atrium in Chișinău – A Familiar Favorite As someone from Moldova, Atrium has been a go-to spot for me over the years. It is a simple yet charming shopping center that has just the right balance of everything you need — from men’s suits to women’s dresses, accessories, and casual essentials. There are also places to grab a bite, making it a nice stop not just for shopping but for meeting up with friends or having a quiet moment alone. It is not a massive mall, but it has always felt convenient and welcoming. If I am not mistaken, the top floors are used for office spaces now, but I remember back in the day there used to be parties or events held there, which added to its lively vibe. I am not sure if that still happens, but those memories add to its charm for me. Overall, Atrium continues to be one of those steady, reliable places in Chișinău that many locals, like myself, have come to appreciate.

Although there are lots of stores, including a minority with western countries' preferences of style, almost all of the stores in this mall closes at around 3:30pm to 4:00pm in the afternoon, even if the mall officially closes at 9pm. It's been like this for the past few months. Every time I visit this mall, 95% percent of the stores have already pulled down their metal curtains by half past three in the afternoon. They could have more customers and more potential in success if they open during the hours when people get out of work, but instead, they wait around when their potential customers are still at work and close their small businesses before most of their potential customers get out of work in the afternoon. It's a pity because this mall has better-looking clothes than the other mall across the street. Who told these private business owners that it's best to operate from morning to mid-afternoons? Most of them replicate the same schedule with their opening hours.

Atrium offers a diverse range of shopping options, catering to all tastes and budgets. High-end fashion brands, electronics retailers, jewelry stores. What truly sets Atrium apart is its commitment to customer convenience. They have ample parking space, clean and modern restrooms, and a helpful concierge desk for any inquiries. The mall is also easily accessible, which adds to its appeal.

The Selfie Museum is a new and intriguing place where visitors can capture beautiful photos. It's suitable for all ages, with children from 5 to 16 enjoying the experience alongside adults. The atmosphere is praised for its appeal, and the professional animators ensure a delightful time for everyone. However, some areas may need improvement to cater better to children's safety. Overall, it's a recommended spot for creating lasting memories through photography and entertainment.
Very cool place for children parties. However, if you call in advance you can go and visit when they are not having an event. Highly recommend to go have fun with your kids, siblings, cousins and so on. WARNING: the cat is NOT included, we brought our own (if you ask nicely and your cat behaves and you take care of the space and behave respectfully, they'll allow it). Andrei the manager, and all the staff are very friendly people. Highly recommend visiting and/or having a party there.

(Translated by Google) It is a wonderful place where the child can feel safe with his friends. Thanks to the diverse playground provided by the Selfie Museum, and their entertainers who came up with Mine Craft characters, the child had a memorable birthday. The girls in the team are very attentive to the needs of children as well as adults, and the minimum expected time of 3 hours is enough for the children to have a great time. We will gladly return for other celebrations with other themes💚 (Original) Este un loc minunat, unde copilul se poate simți în siguranță împreună cu prietenii săi. Datorită terenului de joacă divers oferit de către Selfie Museum, și a animatorilor lor care au venit cu personajele Mine Craft, copilul a avut o aniversare memorabilă. Fetele din echipă sunt foarte atente cu necesitățile copiilor dar și a maturilor, iar minimum de timp preconizat de 3 ore, este de ajuns pentru o distracție faină a copiilor.

(Translated by Google) The most wonderful place to organize a birthday, beautiful, spacious, exciting, the child's favorite characters and most important to be located in the center of the capital. Games and amusements are chosen according to age. Children dream of returning to the world of the SelfieMuseum story, or felt wonderful, like us adults who served the meal, we allowed ourselves to be children and sing karaoke with them, to be at the paper disco 😊. The children were in the center of attention and experienced so many emotions and created so many memories. In a few days I received an email with pictures, it's a great idea, don't take pictures but enjoy the moment😘♥️. I confidently recommend SelfieMuseum, it's the best birthday distribution space in Chisinau. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ (Original) Cel mai minunat loc pentru organizarea zilei de naștere, frumos, spațios, captivant, personajele preferate ale copilului și cel mai inportant să se află în centrul capitalei.

Copiii visează să revină în lumea de povestea SelfieMuseum, sau simțit minunat, ca și noi maturii care am servit masa, ne-am permis sa fim și noi copii și sa cîntam cu ei caraoke, să fim la discoteca de hirtie 😊. Copiii au fost în centru atenției și au trăit atitea emoții și au creat atitea amintiri. În citeva zile am primit un email cu poze, e super ideea nu faci poze dar savurezi momentul😘♥️.

(Translated by Google) Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything! Amelia's birthday party was beyond our expectations! The location is fantastic, the atmosphere was exactly what we wanted, and the kids had a great time. The girls who helped us during the event were attentive, involved, and always with a smile on their faces. The entertainers were extraordinary! They managed to create a fantastic energy and involve all the kids in the activities. What surprised us the most was that the 1-year-olds and the 14-year-olds had just as much fun, which is very rare! The administrator was very kind and left us with a very pleasant impression. It was a memorable experience for all of us and we will definitely be back! 😊 PS: We had a mixed party, with more adults than children, and the adults sat at the table together, partying, and the kids had fun in the rooms with the playground. Even though there was a lot of noise at the tables, you couldn't hear all the noise. We had so much fun that we decided to extend it by an hour. No one wanted to leave :) I also recommend the photographer, it takes some of the pressure off the parents to record everything and makes it more relaxing. The pinata was a great addition, all the kids had a great time! (Original) Vă mulțumim din suflet pentru tot! Petrecerea de ziua Ameliei a fost peste orice așteptare! Locația este fantastică, atmosfera a fost exact ce ne-am dorit, iar copiii s-au distrat de minune. Fetele care ne-au ajutat pe parcursul evenimentului au fost atente, implicate și mereu cu zâmbetul pe buze. Animatorii au fost extraordinari! Au reușit să creeze o energie fantastică și să implice toți copiii în activități. Ce ne-a surprins cel mai mult a fost că s-au distrat la fel de bine copiii de 1 an cât și cei de 14, ceea ce e foarte rar! Doamna administrator a fost foarte amabilă și ne-a lăsat o impresie tare plăcută. A fost o experiență memorabilă pentru noi toți și cu siguranță vom reveni! 😊 PS: Noi am avut o petrecere mixta, cu mai multi maturi decit copii, si maturii au stat la masa impreuna, chefuind, iar copiii s-au distrat in camerele cu teren de joaca. Chiar daca acolo era galagie mare la maturi unde erau mesele nu se auzea toata gălăgia. Ne-am distrat atit de mult incit am hotarit să prelungim cu o ora. Nimeni nu vroia sa plece :) recomand si fotograful, mai ia din presiunea parintilor sa inregistreze tot si se mai relaxează. Pinata a fost un adaus extraordinar, toti copiii s-au distrat de minune!

London's SteakHouse is a delightful culinary destination where you can indulge in an array of mouthwatering steaks, including pork, beef, chicken, and even salmon. The restaurant boasts an inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a classic English pub, making it the ideal spot for gatherings with friends or family dinners. Be sure to try one of their signature dishes paired with a fine red wine or refreshing beer. If you're short on time, don't hesitate to call ahead and secure your table!
Omg. I have eaten plenty of steaks in my life but I think that those ones were the best ever 😁😁 I always take them rare. Chateubriand I ordered was perfect. Moist, slightly warm and so delicious it’s unbelievable. Worth every penny. The waiter was quiet, accessible and fast. The vibe is also steakhouse typical one, which is great. Totally recommended. Much better and much cheaper than anywhere in western EU 🤟🤟🤟. We paid approx 50eur for two steaks, wine and double whisky. Chişinău rocks!

Went twice, first time only a few steaks from the menu were available, but the one I ordered was pretty good, and the service was good. Second time everything was available, but although the restaurant was practically empty it took about 10 minutes to get just the menu, and after eating I had to go and find the waiter myself so that I can pay, because no one was coming to check or clean the table. While I was there, a family sat down and left, I suppose they got tired of waiting with the kids.

Let’s face it: Moldova is not the country to go for the best steaks. Nevertheless, here they do a good job. My king size steak was grilled pretty good - slightly further than I prefer but still good. The grilled vegetables and potato wedges were just brilliant. Good wine as well even though the glasses might have been a bit fuller. Overall a good place.

For a steakhouse they don’t understand how to cook steak. The one I got was barely seasoned and way overcooked. The meat was chewy and not even properly trimmed, it had burnt silver skin on one side. If you want a steak avoid this place, the rest of the food we had was fine.
Alexandru T — Google review
Fantastic meat, poor atmosphere with neutral service. Our soups and steaks were perfectly done, wonderfully presented and were just great. Unfortunately the atmosphere in this restaurant feels more like a drink bar with the staff rather disturbed or somewhat surprised we were there to eat in the first place... Like we should come for a beer and leave. We asked for local beer and were told and shown on the menu Efes (which is Greek) and Kozel (which is Czech) but we're quickly told that those are bottled in Moldavia, hence local. Hmmm? So we ordered wine which should have been (and was) decanted in any other place but not here. Anyways, the steaks were perfect but if you're looking for a full experience, I'd suggest going elsewhere. Payment by credit card no problem

Where do I begin? My family and I moved to Moldova to experience the culture, the great people and the many great treats this country offers… We have three kids and in one year, they have attended more birthdays that ever before. We wanted to do it the Moldovan way and celebrated my daughter’s bday at Andersen Buicani. Daiana was our representative, she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything in place. The coordination was impeccable. Food was great, warm and on time. Disco was a hit… Piñata was a favorite… the decor and place itself were truly beautiful. Very clean place with all the amenities that you need to make your child’s birthday, a truly magical day. There are many great options that you can choose from… Daiana was professional, accommodating, creative and very very patient as we navigated the options with a 6 year old girl… Thank you for making her day so special… one she will forever remember.

While it once boasted lush greenery and beautiful trees that created a cozy atmosphere, recent changes have led to concerns about landscaping and tree loss.
Pretty nice place, sadly the old trees are dying slowly because it wasn't designed smartly for green landscaping of the park. Ornamental lighting poles are installed, so the place have more an innovative vibe. People visit the park as it is a a safe place to play for little ones, there's even chess tables.
