Botoșani County
Seat: Botoșani
On Romania's north-eastern edge, where Moldavia's gentle plains fade toward the border, Botoșani county is a land of spirit and tradition. Here, at Ipotești, Mihai Eminescu was born, the nation's peerless poet, and his memory lives on in the house and woods that inspired his verse. These lands also gave the world George Enescu, the genius of Romanian music.
Villages preserve old crafts, such as painted eggs, true works of miniature art. Botoșani, the county seat, with its old merchants and inns, watches over this cradle of culture.
