If you are in the area make sure to drop by the Parliament Building of the Republic of Moldova. If you look close enough you will see Moldova spelled out neatly in small bushes right in front of the Parliament. While perhaps not the most exciting sight of Chișinău, it is worth stopping by if you like Soviet architecture, even if it is just to glance at it for a quick second as the building is just absolutely massive. This Parliament Building was actually where the central committee of the Moldovan Branch of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union used to meet.
