“Wine country capital — world's largest wine cellar, new nomad visa, ultra-affordable, off-the-beaten-path”
Moldova's capital sits on seven hills along the Bîc River. Little known to most travelers, Chișinău is a city of parks and Soviet-era architecture slowly being reimagined. The main draw beyond price is wine: Moldova has the world's highest density of vineyards per capita, and the Mileștii Mici wine cellar — with 200km of underground tunnels — holds the Guinness record for largest wine collection (2 million bottles). A new digital nomad visa launched in September 2025.
