Iași

The terrain of Iași ranges from rolling hills in the west to lower ground beside the Prut River in the east, creating a predominantly agricultural Moldavian landscape. The Bahlui River crosses the county toward the regional capital, Iași, one of Romania’s major cultural centres. The city served as the capital of the Principality of Moldavia from 1564 to 1862 and remains known for institutions including Alexandru Ioan Cuza University, founded in 1860. Beyond the city, villages, fields and wooded slopes reflect the quieter character of northeastern Romania.
