Moldova is a landlocked country located in Eastern Europe sharing borders with Romania to the west and Ukraine to the east, south and north. Moldova is a young country but it is steeped in rich European history, and the art, architecture, religion, and culture have western, Roman, and Byzantine influences. Moldovans are primarily eastern orthodox Christians who worship in beautiful monasteries built in the 15th and 16th centuries. Several of the 60 monasteries have been included in UNESCO's World Heritage list, not simply for the architecture, but perhaps for the legends about them. The Tipova Monastery, for example, is said to be where the Greek mythological poet Orpheus died. Moldova is also known for its best, affordable wines, produced by members of the Moldova Wine Guild, including varietals, blended, rose, sparkling, dessert, and iced wines. Moldova also has beautiful wine cellars such as Krikova-Veki and Milestii Mici, which, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, is the largest in the world. The vineyards themselves are beautiful to visit.
