Things to do Transnistria - Back in USSR Tour of Tiraspol

Hello everyone, we invite you to discover Transnistria – the place where the old USSR is still alive and flourishing. It is a breakaway territory within the internationally recognized borders of Moldova. The country’s national coat of arms still includes the traditional hammer and sickle and the Lenin is revered today. First, stop – at Bender Fortress. In 1713, the fortress, the town, and the neighboring village Varniţa were the site of skirmishes (kalabalik) between Charles XII of Sweden, who had taken refuge there with the Cossack Hetman Ivan Mazepa after his defeat in the Battle of Poltava. After Bender, we take you to Tiraspol, the capital of Transnistria and the 2nd largest town of Moldova. We will take you to the major attractions of Tiraspol, such as V. Lenin monument and the house of soviets, the Transnistrian Parliament (25 October Ave, Tiraspol), the Afghanistan War Memorial, the Monument-tank, and more. Possible extensions for this tour: MIMI wine castle or Kvint Distillery.
