Ștefan cel Mare Central Park
Parcul Ștefan cel Mare și Sfânt
Chișinău's oldest city park. A statue of Stephen the Great stands at the entrance, and its tree-lined avenues and fountains are where locals spend their everyday time.
Established in 1818, this is Chișinău's oldest park. A bronze statue of Stephen the Great, dating from 1928, stands at the main gate. Inside the park you'll find a monument to Pushkin, a lane honouring literary figures, and a central fountain. On weekends there are art stalls and street performers. The park is free and open all day. It lies in the middle section of Stephen the Great Boulevard, a few minutes' walk from the Nativity Cathedral and the Triumphal Arch, making it a good starting point for a stroll around the city.
