Beschreibung

Walk through the rise and fall of the USSR in Chișinău. From Parliament, WW2 Memorial and Circus to flea markets and mosaics, plus a Soviet-style canteen lunch and cocktail at the end
Step into the USSR without leaving Chișinău on a private walking tour. Discover the rise and fall of the Soviet Union through the streets, monuments, mosaics, and hidden corners of the city. Hear stories that weave history, daily life, and personal anecdotes, and get a vivid picture of what it meant to live under communism.

Birth of the USSR. Begin at the Railway Station, once the site of both progress and tragedy. The Deportations Monument reveal the repression, famine, and forced journeys that scarred the early Soviet decades. Next, a second-hand market shows how capitalism snuck in through jeans and chewing gum. At the empty Cosmos and former Intourist hotels, uncover the politics of isolation. A short trolleybus ride carries you to the WW2 Victory Monument and the Military Museum, where you explore the price of “victory” in the Stalinist narrative.

The Golden Age. Continue to the Circus, which recalls the Soviet promise of culture and leisure for the masses. Nearby, the Komsomol Youth statue and the housing blocks open conversations about government-allocated apartments and the myth of equality. Stop for a canteen-style lunch, tasting dishes born out of shortages and inventive Soviet cooking. Around the Opera and Ballet Theatre discover how entertainment was censored and how mosaics became the “USSR street art.” At Parliament, close this chapter by looking at how politics worked in a Soviet Republic.

Decline & Fall. The final act begins at the Lenin statue in Valea Morilor — once a personality cult, now a ghost of the past. At the publishing house, peel back the layers of censorship and forbidden voices, while two nearby churches tell the story of religion under “scientific atheism,” from destroyed crypts to deported priests. End in a hidden bar, where over a glass of Soviet vermouth you connect Gorbachev’s failed Prohibition and the country’s present-day revival as a wine nation.
