I leave Chisinau on Friday to return to Moscow. I've had a good trip overall, rested and explored the city. The sun was finally out yesterday and today, so I wandered around the city and took some pictures.
Cathedral of the Birth of Christ.
Closeup.
View on the Central Square, where the New Year's festivities were held.
Hotel Cosmos. A typical example of Soviet construction trying to look futuristic.
A beautiful scuplture of a Russian general and a horrendous, dehumanizing new apartment building.
