📣 Traveler notes
Moldova is a small, landlocked country located between Romania and Ukraine. It is known for its monasteries and wines. Tours focusing on winemaking and religious sites can be accessed from the capital, Chișinău.
- Local curiosity is generally harmless.
- Be cautious when discussing sensitive political topics, such as the reunification of Moldova and Romania, the Transnistria conflict, or relations with Russia.
- When approached by scammers, it is advisable to ignore or firmly tell them to leave. Culturally, women are highly respected; male locals are traditionally expected to show chivalry (e.g., paying for items, opening doors). In rural areas, women are expected to refrain from smoking or drinking alcohol.
