Transnistria travel guide: Tiraspol / Bender day trip through Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
A short video with all the crucial information for visiting Transnistria as a tourist, all in one place. I visited in March 2019.
As you’ll see in this guide, I recommend a day trip from Chisinau, Moldova - you won’t need anymore than 5/6 hours to see a lot of what the country has to offer.
The border guards aren’t as menacing as you’d imagine but things are so much easier (especially if you don’t speak Russian) if you arrange a taxi (I paid €60 return) as the driver will help you with the Russian peacekeepers and getting a visa at the border.
Take you passport everywhere and DO NOT lose the paper visa you’re given at the border crossing.
I also recommend booking a tour guide in advance. I used - they allowed me to customise my trip, and my guide, Antony, was friendly and very knowledgeable.
You’ll get a much richer experience with a guide as Transnistria is not geared up for tourists, and you won’t have the luxury of having a Transnistrian SIM card to use Google maps.
Take Euros, buy Cognac, have fun!

Transnistria: travel documentary
#Transnistria #Documentry #Travel
Transnistria is the land that (formally) does not exists. Squeezed between Moldova and Ukraine, the officially the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic seems suspended in time. Statues of Lenin and Russian tanks are scattered near all the main buildings of its capital, Tiraspol. But, while was depicted as the European version of North Korea, Transnistria is now opening up to tourism, and represent an interesting destination if you are in the region

TRANSNISTRIA, the Country Still Living in the Soviet Union (Between Moldova & Ukraine)
Welcome to Transnistria, the thin strip of land between Moldova & Ukraine, which roughly 500,000 people call home. It is a self declared, unrecognised country that fought to remain independent from Moldova after the breakup of the Soviet Union. I explore its capital city, Tiraspol, where statues of Lenin can be found amongst its Soviet styled streets.

Moldova, Transnistria and its relationship with Russia | VPRO Documentary
How is the relationship of Moldova and Transnistria with Russia? What happened in Moldova after a change of regime and the cooperation agreement with the EU? Are Moldova and Transnistria depending on Russia and if so, why? A documentary about Moldova, Transnistria and its relationship with Russia.
In this eight-part travel series, the Dutch journalist and author Jelle Brandt Corstius travels through Russia and visits the neighbor countries Latvia, Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. What image do the Russians have of their neighbors and vice versa? What are the relations between powerful Russia and the other former Soviet republics? And how do the countries around Russia treat their Russian inhabitants? A series about propaganda and identity.
Moldova seems to stand still. There are still Soviet buildings everywhere. And since the change of regime, the streets have not been serviced. Until 2009, the Communists still had the say. Recently, a pro-European coalition is at the power, signing a cooperation agreement with the EU. Russia was not pleased about it so that no Moldavian wine could be exported anymore. Wine is one of the most important export products in Moldova. Everywhere you go, you can see vineyards.
The two largest wine cellars of the world are in Moldova. In Cricova you can find a tunnel system of 120 kilometers. During the Second World War, Jews were hidden in the wine barrels. Today you can find wine collections that belong to personalities such as Putin, Angela Merkel or John Kerry.
Moldova is the poorest country in Europe. No wonder that many young job seekers are leaving the countryside. The remaining Moldovans have to be satisfied with the money from abroad, even though the pressure from Russia is as big as their dependency. The oil and gas come for example mainly from Russia. Jelle visits the territory of Transnistria, which freed itself from Moldavia after a bloody war in the 1990s and now wants to join Russia.

48 Hours in Transnistria
I recently had the pleasure to visit Transnistria - this is actually a country despite it only being recognised by 3 similar rogue states. Moldova feels it should be Moldova and Transnistria longs for its Soviet past. This is a video showing some of what I saw while there. I will try my best to answer every question.

VIAGGIO IN TRANSNISTRIA - Repubblica fantasma
Viaggio alla scoperta della Transnistria, la repubblica de facto non riconosciuta dall'ONU, una striscia di terra a cavallo fra Ucraina e Moldavia, di cui fa ufficialmente parte, ma dalla quale si è dichiarata indipendente unilateralmente nel 1990. Molti dicono che è un posto pericoloso e che sarebbe meglio non viaggiare qui, ma è davvero così?

Transnistria: The Secret Country That Most People Don't Know Exists
If you are looking for a travel destination WAY OFF THE BEATEN PATH, Transnistria might be just what you're looking for! Eastern Europe doesn't get more unique than this where a part of Moldova broke off as its own republic after the USSR split up. The have their own government, customs and even their own currency! Even though they might not be recognized by the UN as a singular country, they really do live life by their own rules. It was an incredible adventure to be able to go here and I would highly recommend it to anyone else looking for a rare type of adventure!

Traveling to Tiraspol, Transnistria - Present Day Soviet USSR
This was the most random country I've ever visited, and I say that because it's unrecognized as an official country and still lives under the old Soviet USSR flag. Read more on my full blog post here:
Traveling to Tiraspol, Transnistria - The Country That Doesn't Exist - Present Day Soviet USSR
Transnistrian Independence Day 2017
One of the most unique events I've seen traveling was the celebration of Independence Day in the unrecognized country of Transnistria!
27 years after declaring independence from the country of Moldova, the people of this Soviet relic celebrated with a show of marching, dancing, singing and basketball-dribbling.
If you're curious about this strange almost-country, make sure you check out my previous video on Transnistria!
