Chișinău (/ˌkɪʃɨˈnaʊ/ Romanian pronunciation: [kiʃiˈnəw]; also known as Kishinev) is the capital and largest city of the Republic of Moldova. It is Moldova's main industrial and commercial center, and is located in the middle of the country, on the river Bîc. According to the preliminary results of the 2014 census, the municipality of Chișinău is home to 492,894 residents.  Read more..

The Post of Moldova has already issued in the past several cancellations, prepaid postcards or series of stamps dedicated to the founding of the capital, Chișinău : 560th anniversary in 1996 (3 timbres), 570th anniversary in 2006 (prepaid cards), 575th anniversary in 2011 (prepaid cards, set of 5 stamps, postmark). A special cancellation was also put into circulation in 1991 mentioning the 525th anniversary of Chișinău, which is rather confused and contradictory with the anniversaries mentioned above. This is explained because the founding of Chișinău is often mentioned in 1436 while some chronicles testify for the first time the name of the village of Chișinău in 1466. Read more..
