The Soroca fortress in Moldova is a castle that you must see. It is a castle that is still in a beautiful condition and can be visited inside. You look out over the water to the border with Ukraine.

A must visit location when you travel to/through Soroca. This historical structure has been preserved fairly well. It offers great views of the cities' surrounding areas and neighboring Ukraine across the river.
