'''Bălţi''' (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈbəltsʲ]) is the third largest city in [[Moldova]]. The city, also called "the northern capital", is a major industrial, cultural and commercial centre and transportation hub in the north of the country. It is situated 127 kilometres (79 mi) north of the capital [[Chişinău]], and is located on the river Răut, a tributary of the Dniester, on a hilly landscape in the Bălţi steppe.
== Hitching Out ==
=== North ([[Ukraine]]), West ([[Glodeni]]) & South (Chişinău) ===
In the North-West of town you can find an awesome, huge roundabout along the [[M14 (Moldova)|M14]]. You can get there by following the street ''Decebal'' from the city center until it's end, but it should be possible to hitch within the city along this road as well. Traffic going northbound towards [[Edinet]] and the Ukrainian border passes here. Experienced waiting times don't even need to be mentioned. There's also a petrol station situated a few meters further in direction south, at it's end it's a good spot to hitch south or west in direction Glodeni. A few kilometres further another roundabout is located, so consider short-distance rides to get around the city when traveling southbound.
=== South (Chişinău) ===
There should be a better spot to reach from the city when traveling south towards Chişinău, but also consider that different roads can be taken this way (e.g. via M14 or via Orhei). But the spot mentioned above should also work fine, esp. when coming from the north.
