Beșalma Windmill · Moara de vânt de la Beșalma
An old wooden windmill on the hill above Beșalma, with a view over the village
The view from the hill, with the windmill in front, at sunset
A short, photogenic stop on the southern road, next to the Gagauz museum in Beșalma. The 3.7 rating comes mostly from the state of the mill and the road.
A wooden windmill on a hill near Beșalma, in Gagauzia, a few minutes from the village's Gagauz museum. It is falling apart, but you can still go inside, and the view over the village and fields is beautiful. The road up is dirt and very rough: several reviews say to drive carefully, and one says not to try without a 4x4.

“The road leading there is a rough, unpaved dirt road, so be extra careful with your rental car. The windmill is falling apart, but you can still go inside. The surrounding scenery and views are beautiful.”
“This old windmill is a wonderful historical site. To get there, take Pushkin Road, but be aware that the road quality is extremely poor. Drive carefully! Despite the rough road, the windmill’s charm makes the trip worthwhile.”
“Actually it has a big potential but it requires the renovation”
- The mill is falling apart and needs restoring
- A very rough dirt road · one review says not to go up without a 4x4
