Visitor Center at Orhei, cont.






"The exhibition is structured according to historical ages. . . beginning from Paleolithic till late Medieval Ages. In the museum complex are stored objects that comprise 6,000 items of inventory (tools, arms, metal and glass jewels, coins, etc.) and more than 100 fragments of ceramics. The museum collections include as well precious ethnographic items (Fabrics, traditional peasant clothing, etc.), elements of medieval and modern architecture, shown during thematic exhibitions."

Adjacent to the Visitors Center is a hotel (pictured in the last set of Visitors Center photos), and I am wondering if this is the hotel that I read about in the guide book? It looked like there was a restaurant and ice cream case for when there are more tourists?

I also show the view looking out from the Center (those are our buses in the parking lot) -- which is also where we ate our picnic lunch.
