A metal barge used to cross the border from Moldova to Ukraina

---

Not far from Soroca, Moldova, there's an atypical border. A metal barge is used to cross the river, thanks to the flow, and reach the opposite bank of the Dniestr River, on market days (thursday and sunday) that can be used only by the inhabitants fo the villages of Vasilcau (Moldova) going to Velika Kisnitsa (Ukraina) where prices are lower. There's a custom office with two troopers checking documents of residence.
