Hi Moldova DMC (Pass By)

They say, the most precious thing in our life is time. If you have really limited time in Moldova and you want to see the best this country can offer – then our trip to Cricova and Old Orhei is for you. Cricova  represents a unique underground city well-known all over the world by its huge labyrinths, and especially by its excellent wines. Cellars of Cricova are the house of a remarkable collection of wines — The National Oenotec and Old Orhei , open air museum, and archeological complex together form the most famous tourist attraction in Orhei and possibly Moldova. Sounds good right?
