The 'Circle of Friendship' Bench on Henciu Hill – a new recreational space for the community

DecorStone has donated and installed the 'Circle of Friendship' bench on Henciu Hill in Suruceni, contributing to the development of a space dedicated to relaxation and social interaction. This area is now more welcoming for both locals and visitors, providing a resting spot in a place rich in historical significance.
Henciu Hill – A place of legend and vigilance
Henciu Hill, located near the village of Suruceni in Ialoveni district, is well known for its history and legends. It is said that in ancient times, a watchman named Henciu stood guard on this hill, protecting the surrounding communities. In times of imminent danger, he would light signal fires to quickly warn the inhabitants, allowing them to prepare. This tradition of watch fires is found in many cultures and symbolizes vigilance, unity, and protection. Today, Henciu Hill remains a landmark for the community, appreciated for its tranquility and unique atmosphere.
The 'Circle of Friendship' Bench – a reinterpretation of tradition
The bench donated by DecorStone is more than just an urban furniture piece—it is also a symbol of this historic place. The fire pit integrated at its center references the ancient tradition of lighting fires on the hill, offering a modern reinterpretation of a long-standing custom. The circular design encourages interaction and socialization, just as fires once brought communities together.
Made from durable concrete and high-quality wood, the bench is built to withstand the test of time and outdoor conditions. This installation blends modern elements with a symbol of the past, providing a comfortable space for rest and contemplation.
For us, it was a pleasure to contribute to the enhancement of this space, adding an element that connects the past with the present and will remain part of Henciu Hill's story for generations to come.
