Moldova, a small country wedged between Romania and Ukraine, is rich with history, archaeological sites, and unique cultural traditions that make these 10 interesting facts about Moldova especially compelling. From its extinct national animal, the auroch, proudly displayed on the Moldovan flag, to Old Orhei’s ancient cave monasteries and fortifications along the Raut River, Moldova offers far more than many visitors expect.

Moldova’s fertile black soil helps make it a major producer of walnuts, while unusual landmarks like the five-story bottle-shaped building in Ternovka Village highlight its quirky side.
