Saturday 14 January and every Saturday at 17.45 – On SKAI
On Saturday, January 14, Happy Traveler travels to a special destination, Transnistria. It is a semi-autonomous entity – not officially recognized state – within the territory of Moldova, between the Dniester River and the Ukrainian border.
It is an area of Europe that when you visit it as a traveler, you feel like you are traveling in time and going back to the time of the Soviet Union.
Eutychis explores the capital Tiraspol with its impressive fountain and historical monuments. It passes through the town of Bender which was a battlefield in the 1992 war of independence and admires the famous Tighina castle which was a bone of contention in the Russo-Turkish wars. He learns about the history of Transnistria and why it has two names.
He comes across over ten statues of Lenin and a very impressive statue of Prometheus while eating in a “Soviet canteen” – a special restaurant – tasty but very cheap food. Finally, he crosses the Dniester River on a floating Soviet bridge that moves with the power of the river flow and understands why Transnistria is a classic destination for travel vloggers from all over the world.
