Candle of Gratitude
About
The Candle of Gratitude is one of the most symbolic monuments in the Republic of Moldova, set on a high cliff overlooking the Dniester River near Soroca. The monument represents gratitude for culture, faith, and spiritual continuity, shaped as a burning candle. The idea of the monument belongs to the writer Ion Druță, conceived as a tribute to cultural and spiritual values. From the viewing platform, visitors can enjoy spectacular views over the Dniester and the surrounding landscape. The site offers a calm and reflective atmosphere, ideal for contemplation. It is both a cultural landmark and a scenic viewpoint.
Good to know
Access involves climbing around 600 steps, so comfortable footwear is recommended. The site is especially enjoyable in good weather and at sunset.
