The pedestrianised streets around the centre of Chisinau, particularly strada Eugen Doga, have become the buzzing heart of the city’s nightlife, lined with bars, cafes and restaurants whose terraces spill out onto the pavements. On warm evenings the area fills with locals enjoying drinks, food and music in a relaxed, sociable atmosphere. Lively and central, it is the best place in the capital to bar-hop, soak up the evening buzz and experience the easygoing, increasingly cosmopolitan social life of the Moldovan capital.
