One of the most effective ways of recreating or knowing a culture, but also an important source of

income for the host country is tourism. Moldova attracts tourists from around the globe, and despite its
impoverished state, the people are amiable and nice. The land is flourished with green vegetation and
very fertile soil. The soil has been used for vineyards and farming so the wine found in Moldova is fresh
and delicious. Moldova offers a number of scenic locations where you can hike through an ancient
forest and explore natural gardens with beautiful pools of water.Chisinau is the capital of Moldova and
the largest city. The Stefan Cel Care Monument is dedicated to Stephen III who lived in the 15 th century
in Moldova. He resisted oppression by Turkish invaders, and the monument rests at the gateway to a
lovely park with the same name. The Rose Valley is a beautiful area filled with lakes and scenic vistas.
Some other parks are the Riscani Park and the Botanica Park. Some other interesting locations in
Moldova are courtyards and museums.Another gorgeus place is Soroca town is situated 160 km north of
Chisinau on the western bank of the Dniestr river. In the medieval times it had a particular importance
for the defense system of Moldova against the invasions of tartars, polyaks, Cossacks, ottomans and
Slavs from the East. Nowadays it's a small Moldovan town on the Dniestr river bordering Ukraine and
famous for its fortress, the largest Gipsy community in Moldova, sand stone rocks and the candle of
gratitude monument up on a mountain that opens to a traveler a panoramic view of the town and
surroundings.

The city of Chisinau, the capital of the Republic of Moldova, is located, like Rome, on seven hills in the immediate vicinity of the river Bâc.
Urbea is one of the oldest and most important localities in the Republic of Moldova, with beginnings of ancestral, geto-romantic and romantic
life, two millennia ago, with ascensions and declines in the troubles of the Middle Ages and the subsequent centuries of the feudal age, with
obvious changes of economic and cultural importance during the transformation of the old provincial fair into a modern city."Dendrariu" Park
was founded in 1973 on the site of the former Botanical Garden of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova. The park is a perfect area for rest,
walks, sports (equipped with special appliances), photo sessions, picnics, etc. The Memorial Complex "Eternity", the composition of the
Memorial is crowned by five stone masons, 25 meters high, arranged in the shape of a pyramid. At the base of the pyramid there is a large five-
cornered star in the center of which the eternal fire burns. Several engravings are located along the northwestern part of the Memorial,
representing compositional sculptures, which symbolize separate stages of the Great World War. At the base of the carved walls, along the alley,
there are 155 marble slabs with the names of the heroes fallen into war. The territory of the Memorial is paved with white stone tiles. The
Cathedral of the Nativity of Chisinau was built in 1836 after the design of the architect Avraam Melnikov. It is built of stone and brick, with three
altars. The cathedral has a symmetrical composition. The ensemble of the cathedral consists of a church and a bell tower. The Nativity Cathedral
is located near the Great National Assembly Square. In December 1962, the Cathedral was transformed into an exhibition center of the Ministry
of Culture of the MSSR. The church was restituted to the faithful and sanctified again in 1996.The Stefan Cel Care Monument is dedicated to
Stephen III who lived in the 15 th century in Moldova. He resisted oppression by Turkish invaders, and the monument rests at the gateway to a
lovely park with the same name. The Rose Valley is a beautiful area filled with lakes and scenic vistas. Some other parks are the Riscani Park and
the Botanica Park. Some other interesting locations in Moldova are courtyards and museums.

3.New York CityMore than 50 million people visit New York City every year. The five boroughs -- or regions -- of New York
have some of the most easily recognized attractions in the world. Visitors on a budget can take a free boat from Manhattan to
Staten Island for a great view of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline. The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical
sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor in New York City, in the United States. The copper statue, a gift from the people
of France to the people of the United States, was designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and built by Gustave
Eiffel. The statue was dedicated on October 28, 1886. Chicago, IllinoisAmerica’s third-largest city offers world-class museums,
great food, sporting events, and iconic architecture -- including Willis Tower, America’s tallest building. The Midwest city is
also known for comedy. The Second City theater is where many famous comedians got their start, including Mike Meyers and
Tina Fey.Charleston, South CarolinaMany say Charleston is one of the most beautiful and historic places in the United States.
The coastal city has a very rich history. The Civil War began at its waterfront, at Fort Sumter, which visitors can explore. But
present-day Charleston has a lot to offer, too. Conde Nast Traveler voted it the number one U.S. city, for its beautiful
architecture, food, and friendly people.Los Angeles, CaliforniaFrom the palm-lined ocean avenues to Hollywood Hills, Los
Angeles impresses visitors. Get a look at how films are made at one of the movie studios, or high-five a famous person’s prints at
the TCL Chinese Theater. If you are in LA in late February or early March, you might even get to see all the movie stars in one
place on Oscar night.

Branson, MissouriBranson is the place to go for country music concerts, comedy shows, and magic shows. Most days, up to 90
performances are taking place at nearly 40 theaters in the city. Set near the Ozark Mountains, the surrounding nature offers great
fishing, biking, and hiking.
4. Environmental pollution had been a fact of life for many centuries
but it became a real problem since the start of the industrial revolution. The industrial revolution during 19th , brought with it technological
progress such as discovery of oil and its virtually universal use throughout different industries. At the same time, of course, development of
natural sciences led to the better understanding of negative effects produced by pollution on the environment. Generally speaking, there are
many types of environmental pollution but the most important ones are:Air pollution-Water pollution-Soil pollution (contamination). Industry
- source of pollutionIndustry - source of pollution Industry is, at the moment, the main pollutant on a world scale. Processes of industrial
production. Emissions are substances released into the atmosphere by plants, or other centers. Industrial production processes release emissions,
which are redeemed if there are no filters for waste gas treatment. Specific substances are then released and can cause local
catastrophesTransport - source of pollutionTransports are, as you know, another important source of pollution. Thus, in the U.S. 60% of total
pollutant emissions come from cars and in some localities even up to 90%. Fuel-motor vehicles are a polluting factor that is increasingly taken
into account. Large cities or dense urban agglomerations are affected to a large extent by noxious transports. Volcanic eruptions - the source of
pollutionVolcanic eruptions generate gaseous, liquid and solid products which, locally, change not only the micro and mesothelium of the area
in which they manifest themselves, but also exert negative influences on atmospheric purity. Volcanic ashes, along with water vapor, volcanic
dust and many other gases, are blown up into the atmosphere, forming thick clouds that can float to distances from the place of emission.
Environmental pollution is causing a lot of distress not only to humans but also animals, driving many animal species to endangerment and
even extinction.Perhaps we should adopt a holistic view of nature – it is not an entity that exists separately from us; the nature is us, we are an
inalienable part of it, and we should care for it in the most appropriate manner. Only then can we possibly solve the problem of environmental
pollution.

5. Washington, D.C., D.C. in full District of Columbia, city and capital of the United States of America. It is coextensive with the District of
Columbia (the city is often referred to as simply D.C.) and is located on the northern shore of the Potomac River at the river’s navigation
head—that is, the transshipment point between waterway and land transport. The state of Maryland borders the District of Columbia to the
north, east, and west, and the state of Virginia borders the District on the southern shore of the Potomac River.The White House is the official
residence of the President of the United States. The home of every president except George Washington, it was originally built by James
Hoban in 1792, and after being burned down by British forces in 1814 was rebuilt in 1818. Although tours of the interior that include the East,
Blue, Green, and Red Rooms; the Ballroom; and the State Dining Room must be reserved well in advance through your Congressional office
or embassy, every tourist to Washington will want to see this iconic building, at least from the outside.The Lincoln Memorial,The best-loved
of all Washington's memorials, the Lincoln Memorial stands at the far end of the mall, separated from the Washington Monument by the
Reflecting Pool. At its center is a 19-foot marble statue of a seated and pensive President Abraham Lincoln surrounded by 36 columns, one for
each of the states that existed at the time of Lincoln's death. This is the most famous work designed by noted sculptor Daniel Chester
French.National Air and Space Museum is one of the world's most popular museums, with a collection of history-making air and spacecraft
that includes the original 1903 Wright Brothers Flyer, and Charles Lindbergh's Spirit of St. Louis, the first plane to fly solo across the Atlantic
Ocean. More recent flight history is represented here by the Apollo 11 command module, part of the first manned lunar landing mission.
Permanent and changing exhibitions illustrate the science, history, and technology of aviation and space flight, covering topics like the use of
air power in both world wars, the space race, flight pioneers, and up-to-the-minute flight and space technology. The National Zoo is another
part of the Smithsonian, where nearly 2,000 different animals, birds, and reptiles live in habitats replicating as closely as possible their natural
environments. The English-style, Neo-Gothic National Cathedral, one of the world's largest cathedrals, took 83 years to build, from 1907 to
1990. It follows the Gothic building style and techniques, with flying buttresses and solid masonry construction of Indiana limestone.

7. The language of instruction under the Soviet rule was Russian. However, since 1989, Moldovan was adopted as the official language and in
the year 2000, nearly two-thirds of all pupils were studying in schools where Moldovan was the language of instruction. However, schools
serving the needs of minorities and schoolswith Russian, Gagauzian, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian as the language of instruction are also
present.The education system in Moldova consists of preschool, primary, secondary and higher education. The preschool education is for
children up to the age of seven years. The primary education is between grades one through four and typically involves children between the
ages of 8-12. The secondary education consists of two tracks: general and vocational. General secondary education from grades 5-9 is called
the gymnasium, and grades 10-12 is called liceul (lyceum). The vocational track is called the professional liceul. Higher education consists of
two stages, short-term college education and university education. These institutions were traditionally awarding Diplomas but, in the year
2000, were also using the titles of Bachelor and Master to conform to international standards. Since its independence the Moldovan
government has also added substantial courses in Romanian literature and history to the curriculum. Strong ties have been established between
the education systems in Romania and Moldova. Throughout the 1990s Romania extensively donated textbooks to replace books from the
Soviet era.
8. The American education system offers a rich field of choices for international students. There is such an array of schools, programs and
locations that the choices may overwhelm students, even those from the U.S. As you begin your school search, it’s important to familiarize
yourself with the American education system. Understanding the system will help you narrow your choices and develop your education
plan.Prior to higher education, American students attend primary and secondary school for a combined total of 12 years. These years are
referred to as the first through twelfth grades.Around age six, U.S. children begin primary school, which is most commonly called “elementary
school.” They attend five or six years and then go onto secondary school.Secondary school consists of two programs: the first is “middle
school” or “junior high school” and the second program is “high school.” A diploma or certificate is awarded upon graduation from high
school. After graduating high school (12th grade), U.S. students may go on to college or university. College or university study is known as
“higher education.” The school calendar usually begins in August or September and continues through May or June. The majority of new
students begin in autumn, so it is a good idea for international students to also begin their U.S. university studies at this time. There is a lot of
excitement at the beginning of the school year and students form many great friendships during this time, as they are all adjusting to a new
phase of academic life. Additionally, many courses are designed for students to take them in sequence, starting in autumn and continuing
through the year.
9. There are only 6 public holidays in Great Britain. Those are days on which people need not go to work. These days are: Christmas Day,
Boxing day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Spring Bank Holiday and Late Summer Bank Holiday. Most of these holidays are of religious
origin, though it would be right to say that for the great part of the population they have lost their religious significance and are simply days on
which people relax, drink and make merry. All public holidays, except Christmas day and Boxing day observed on December 25th and 26th
respectively, are movable, that is don't fall on the same day each year. Christmas day observed on December 25th is the most popular public
holiday of the year in all parts of Greeat Britain except Scotland. On Christmas Eve offices and public buildings close at one o'clock, but the
shops stay open late. Most big cities, especially London, are decorated with Christmas trees and colored lights across the streets. Everybody
wants to be at home for Christmas. At homes there's a great air of expectation. The children are decorating the tree, housewives are busy in the
kitchen getting things ready for the next day's dinner. The Christmas food, nowadays usually turkey, is being prepared and stuffed. The chief
Christmas tree is usually placed on Trafalgar Square, in front of the national Gallery, and it has become a tradition that the tree is a present
from the people of Oslo. December 26th is called Boxing day because traditionally it was the day for people still give a "Christmas box" to the
postman and milkman, but it's usually some money. This is the day when one visits friends, goes for a drive or a long walk or just sits around
recovering from eating too much food. In the big cities and towns, tradition on that day demands a visit to the Christmas pantomime where one
is entertained by the story of Cinderella, or Puss in Boots or whoever it may be. Easter is a religious holiday and Easter Monday is a bank
holiday. Certain old traditions are observed, whenever it's celebrated as the start of spring or a religious festival. London greets the spring with
a spectacular show, Easter Parade in Batter Sea Park on Easter Sunday each year. It is sponsored by the London, Tourist Board and is usually
planned around a central theme related to the history and attractions of London. During the Easter Holidays the attention of the progressive
people in Britain and indeed throughout the world stays focused. First and foremost on the Easter Peace Marches, which took place for the first
time in 1958 and have since become traditional. Good Friday and Easter Monday depend on Easter Sunday, which falls on the 1st Sunday after
a full Moon on or after March 21st. The Spring Bank Holiday falls on the last Monday of May or on the 1st Monday of June, while the Late
Summer Bank Holiday comes on the last Monday in August or on the first Monday in September, depending on which of the Monday is nearer
to June 1st and September 1st respectively. Besides public holidays, there are other festivals, anniversaries and simply days, for example
Pancake Day and Bonfire High on which certain traditions are observed.

10. London is one of the historic capitals that abounds in tourist attractions. London is worth visiting at any time of the year
because it is a city full of history and tourist attractions.Big Ben is one of the most important tourist attractions in London,
becoming almost an emblem of the British capital. Big Ben looks delightfully at night when the facade and the cakes on each
face are lit. When the Parliament is in session a light shines over the clock's facade.Buckingham Palace (Buckingham Palace)
is the official London residence of the United Kingdom sovereign of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and was first opened
to the public in 1993.The London Eye is the U.K.'s tallest Ferris wheel (it was Europe's tallest before Brexit) and the most
popular paid tourist attraction in the United Kingdom. It can be perfectly admired from the Westminster Bridge and is a great
way to watch the sun go down over the House of Parliament. The oldest of the capital's eight Royal Parks is visited every year
by millions of Londoners and tourists. Surrounded by some of the city's most famous landmarks including Buckingham Palace,
this dreamy park is not to be missed during the warm weather months. London can be enjoyed all day and all night.
