Baia
Romania
One of the earliest urban settlements in Moldavia — and likely its oldest princely seat — Baia is a pocket-sized commune in Suceava County, northeastern Romania, sitting on the Moldova River. Known in medieval sources as Civitas Moldaviae, it carries a layered history across several languages and cultures, with mountains close by and UNESCO World Heritage sites in the wider region.
