Old Orhei - the museum open-air

Sightseeing Nature tour in Orhei

Tour Price : 100 $ Duration : 4 hours Languages: English, Russian,

Old Orhei is a place which tells us story of Moldova since centuries B.C. Here once established the strengthenings ancient people, then ancestors of Moldavians - geto-daki, in the period of the Golden Horde tataro-Mongol here lived, and Stefan Great built fortress for protection of the state of Moldova. This place attracts tourists as the nature created here unique landscapes in which the person didn't take part.

From all directions Old Orhei is surrounded with high rocks, and in the center the hill settles down, the surrounding territory from where is very well looked through. This fact was defining for a choice of a place of the settlement of ancient inhabitants. Here archeological excavations were repeatedly carried out and the artifacts confirming these historical data were found.Also on this place subsequently there were many rocky monasteries which too chose places difficult available. Today here only one such monastery works and we can visit it.

Stefan Great's fortress didn't remain, but there were ruins where archeological excavations too are periodically carried out. These sights and many others we will see during our excursion which will take about 4 hours together with the road. Here it is possible to have dinner in rural board in traditionally Moldavian style national dishes, with love prepared by locals.
