Mileștii Mici Winery
Mileștii Mici
Guinness-certified as the world's largest wine cellar by volume, with underground tunnels about 200 km long. You can drive your own car through the cellars.
The cellars were built in limestone quarry tunnels. The underground galleries total about 200 km, with roughly 55 km in actual use. They hold nearly 2 million bottles of wine, and Guinness World Records recognised the cellar in 2005. Visits must be booked in advance as a guided tour. You can ride a guide vehicle or drive yourself along the 'Wine Streets', then visit the storage vaults and taste wine. Fees are charged by tasting package. The underground is cool, so bring a jacket. The winery is about 18 km south of the city centre.
