How to Dial a Moldovan Number — Country Code +373
Moldova's country code is +373. When dialling domestically, Moldovan numbers use a leading trunk digit 0 (for example, 022 for Chișinău). When calling from abroad, drop that leading zero and replace it with +373. Mobile numbers start with 6, 7, or 8 — the same rule applies.
Type the full number into the Give a Ring dial pad starting with +373 and the app displays the rate automatically before you connect.
🇲🇩 Surprising & Funny Facts About Moldova
A Guinness Record Buried Underground
Moldova is home to the world's largest wine collection: Mileștii Mici holds nearly 2 million bottles in 200 km of tunnels and holds the Guinness World Record. You need your own car to visit — the cellar is too large to walk. Nearby Cricova has 120 km of underground galleries with streets named after grape varieties. According to legend, cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin visited Cricova in 1966 and couldn't find his way out for two full days.
A Country Within a Country
In eastern Moldova sits Transnistria — an unrecognised breakaway state with its own currency, passports, coat of arms, and even postage stamps (usable nowhere else on Earth). No UN member country officially recognises it, yet it has existed for over 30 years. The Transnistrian rouble is probably the most non-exchangeable currency in the world.
The Language That Spent 30 Years Arguing About Its Name
Moldovans speak Romanian — but the country's constitution officially called it "Moldovan" until 2023. Parliament finally renamed it "Romanian" that year, implementing a Constitutional Court ruling from 2013. Every linguist on the planet agreed there was no difference. The debate lasted three decades — a world record in linguistic self-determination.
The Most Apple-Eating Nation on Earth
Moldova holds the world record for apple consumption per capita — roughly 472 apples per person per year. That is more than one apple every single day. When your country produces both exceptional wine and record-breaking apples, choosing between juice and something stronger becomes a genuine dilemma.
Turkic Christians: The Gagauz Puzzle
In southern Moldova live the Gagauz people — an ethnic Turkic group who speak a language close to Turkish but practice Orthodox Christianity. Their autonomous region, Gagauzia, is one of Europe's most extraordinary cultural curiosities. The capital, Comrat, was founded in 1789 — its name means "Black Horse" in Turkic.
Europe's Least-Visited Country
Moldova is officially Europe's least-visited country — yet those who make it here are almost universally astonished. Two Guinness records, extraordinary food, ancient monasteries, and prices that make the rest of Europe look extravagant. The secret is almost entirely still intact. A rare thing in an over-touristed continent.
🗺️ What Are the Best Places to Visit in Moldova?
Cricova & Mileștii Mici — Underground Wine Cities
Two colossal underground wine complexes just outside Chișinău. Cricova's streets are named after grape varieties and you tour them by electric vehicle. Mileștii Mici holds the Guinness World Record for the world's largest wine collection. Both are open to visitors and offer unforgettable tastings dozens of metres underground.
Old Orhei (Orheiul Vechi) — Cave Monastery
A medieval cave monastery carved into a limestone cliff above the Răut River. Monks lived here from the 13th century onward. The surrounding landscape of rolling steppe, Iron Age settlements, and chalk cliffs is among the most dramatic in the country — and almost entirely untouched by tourism.
Soroca — Medieval Fortress & Roma Hill
The Soroca Fortress was built by Stephen the Great in 1499. Just above the city, the Roma (Gypsy) Hill is lined with extravagant palaces modelled on Versailles, the Taj Mahal, and Notre-Dame — built to celebrate success after generations of discrimination. Each house is more flamboyant than the last.
Tiraspol — A Soviet Time Capsule
The capital of unrecognised Transnistria feels like 1985 never ended: Lenin statues, Soviet mosaics, a separate currency, and border checkpoints. A passport is required to enter. Tiraspol is utterly unique — a living open-air museum of Soviet life, with surprisingly good wine and very low prices.
Château Purcari & Castel Mimi
Two of Moldova's most celebrated wineries. Château Purcari was founded in 1827 and is ranked among the world's top 15 architectural wine masterpieces. In 1878, its Negru de Purcari won gold at the Paris World Exhibition — Moldova's first international wine medal.
Gagauzia — Orthodox Turks of the South
An autonomous region with one of Europe's most unusual cultural identities: Turkic language, Orthodox faith, and a strong local pride. The capital Comrat has a fascinating History Museum and a cathedral that defies easy categorisation. Nowhere else in Europe does anything quite like this exist.
