Orhei District

Moldova

It's known for its small cave monastery but if you head to this location a little over an hour outside of Chisinau, make sure you go for a long walk along the ridge. You can walk for 2 hours up here, enjoying sweeping views of the countryside below before reaching a couple of small villages where the local people will welcome you with smiles.

Beauty inspires people to be better.
While visiting Orhei Vechi last week, here in Moldova, we came across this old well. I say it’s an ‘old’ well in the sense that it’s been around for a few years (to say the least). The coolest part is that it’s physically still in use as one of the sources of water in this living museum of a village! Orhei Vechi is by far one of the most interesting parts of the country we’ve been fortunate enough to experience so far! #Europe #Moldova #Village
