Arrival in the country that does not exist 'Transnistria' 05.08.2019

On sunday evening 1845 hrs I left Odessa and took a train to Tiraspol with arrival 2100 hrs.
In Kiev I stayed in a hostel, in Odessa in a hotel and in Tiraspol it will be a homestay. A few weeks ago I messaged a german speaking tourguide offering Soviettours in the capital Tiraspol and he also offered a guestroom in his place. I gladly took the offer.

As Transnistria is a none recognized country although it has borders, a goverment, flag and his own currency since abt 30 years.

Transnistria is the last Soviet country and still has hammer and sickle as part of their flags on their coins etc. Even Russia has removed the hammer and sickle from their official symbols.


Lenin still greets guests in front of goverment buildings


Like in Prypjat (Chernobyl) all good Soviet towns had a similar amusement section.

 And Tanks remember the war against Moldova in 1991
