Parcul Dubasarii Vechi

The park in Dubăsarii Vechi, Criuleni district, is the central green space of a large village set near the Dniester, roughly 30 km north-east of Chișinău. Paths, benches, shaded areas and free access around the clock — a place the community comes to walk, with over 280 reviews and a rating of 4.4. Worth a stop if you are driving the road along the Dniester, a route that combines floodplain scenery, large villages and a short distance from the capital.

4.4(287)

Dubăsarii Vechi is one of the larger villages in Criuleni district, in the Dniester floodplain, a short distance from Chișinău. The park in the centre of the village is where the community goes for a walk and, for visitors, a simple and unpretentious stop on the route along the river.

What you'll see

A tidy village park with paths, benches and mature trees for shade. It is a neighbourhood space, used for evening walks, meeting people and local activities, rather than an attraction with tourist facilities. The relatively high number of reviews for a rural locality shows how central it is to village life. The entrance is marked as wheelchair accessible, and the main paths are easy going.

Getting there

The village lies in Criuleni district, roughly 30 km north-east of Chișinău, about 40 minutes by car. The route crosses the Dniester floodplain, one of the easiest short trips out of the capital. There are regular minibus services to villages in the district; frequencies and departure points are set out in the site's transport guide. Parking is on the streets around the park.

When to go

The park is open around the clock, every day, with no entry fee. The most pleasant period is April to October, when the greenery is dense and the evenings long. In the cold months it remains accessible but is practically deserted. Sundays and public holidays bring the most local activity.

Good to know

Realistically, a stop takes 20–30 minutes.
Suitable for children, with good access for pushchairs.
Do not count on any services in the park; buy what you need in the village or in Chișinău.
The middle Dniester is worth taking slowly, and Criuleni district has other places to visit that link into a day route out of the capital.
For a day out of the capital, combine the stop with a visit to nearby wineries or a meal at one of the recommended restaurants.
