Most of Moldova exists in a strip of land flanked by the Prut and the Dniester rivers. The fertile lands and temperate climate of the continent have made the area perfect for agricultural production and have earned Moldova the role of key producer of grains, vegetables and fruits in the region. Summers here are warm and winters mild and pleasing - a paradise for wine growers.
The Prut runs into the Danube and meets the Black Sea to the west, while the north-south route of the Dniester in the north-east covers most of Moldova and makes it the main water source for the republic.
The north of Moldova has hills and slopes but all under 430 metres high, making it a scenic and pleasing region for residents and visitors alike. The tallest peak in the area is the Dealul Bălăneşti. The capital of Moldova is the centrally located Chişinău (the erstwhile Kishinev). Other key cities are Tiraspol, Tighina and Bălţi.
The overuse of pesticides and insecticides has polluted the land and groundwater with traces of chemicals like DDT, so it is safest to drink water only after checking with the locals if it is okay to drink or even rinse your mouth or face with. Remember, boiling water does not get rid of chemicals, so be extra careful.
Knowing the rules of chivalry isn't just a bonus here; it is almost expected of you. Like with other Slav areas, women expect to have doors opened for them, to be allowed in first and to be given a seat. Avoid making derogatory or negative remarks about any women here, unless you are looking for trouble!
