May 27, 2016 11:37 am Burgas region, Nessebar, Veliko Tarnovo + 6 cities - Bulgaria August 2015

So why is Bulgaria...

1. Bulgaria although it is part of the European Union, you can get a Bulgarian visa there, not a Schengen one. Bulgarian visa much cheaper and you don't have to go to get fingerprinted.

By multiple Bulgarian visa you can also visit neighboring countries eg Turkey, Romania, Macedonia.

2. If you choose your location golden sand and, then be prepared for a noisy endless party. In Golden Sands, somehow there is a significant difference in the sea throughout the entire 10 km of the village. The most beautiful sea, a stunning turquoise hue at the very beginning of Golden Sands. The color of the sea there is unrealistically similar to the Caribbean Sea.

3. If you want not just to lie on the beach, but to see the country, then the first place where you should go is the city Veliko Tarnovo. On buses with transfers, you can get there from any region of Bulgaria, but it will take a lot of time. The most convenient way is by car. There are also excursions there. Veliko Tarnovo wonderful old City located in a highly hilly-mountainous area. from cafes and viewing platforms offers a wonderful view of the city, which was once the capital of Bulgaria. The first mention of Tarnovo in historical monuments dates back to the 9th century; in 1186-1393 here was the capital of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom, the place of the coronation of the Bulgarian kings and the residence of the archbishop, since 1235 - the Bulgarian patriarchs. 6.5 km north of Tarnovo is located Transfiguration Monastery. current monastery located under sheer cliffs.

4. In Veliko Tarnovo, you must visit the old fortress Tsarevets. The entrance to the fortress is paid. It is located on the hill of the same name, right in the center of the city. This hill is difficult. Archaeological excavations found on it the remains of ancient people who lived here in the second millennium BC.

The fortress itself was built in the 12th century, and served as the main fortification for the royal power and the patriarchy from 1185 to 1393.

The fortress wall is very well preserved. The Patriarch's Palace is perhaps the most luxury building the whole fortress. It can be seen from anywhere in the city, it is he who forms the silhouette of the fortress.

5. The next interesting place in Bulgaria is the Castle in the village of Ravadinovo "In love with the wind". The castle, although new, is very impressive. You can spend a nice half day there. Here the main advice is not to make a mistake with the time of the visit. The ideal time is early morning (almost no tourists yet) and sunset time (this is especially for photographers). The entrance to the castle is paid.

6. Another pleasant day in Bulgaria can be spent in one of the oldest Bulgarian villages - Arbanassi. Not far from Veliko Tarnovo. Small Bulgarian village rich history and many churches, monasteries and sights. One of the monasteries in the village of Arbanasi is the monastery of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, which belongs to the Veliko-Tyrnovskaya Metropolis of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church.

7. The next must-see place is Cape Kaliakra. Cape Kaliakra is located 12 km from Kavarna. It juts out to sea for 2 km.

At the entrance to the cape, an obelisk is visible, in honor of 40 Bulgarian girls who, according to legend, tied their braids and rushed from the cape into the sea, only to avoid being captured by the Ottomans. On the territory of the cape we see the ruins ancient fortress, the remains of Roman baths, etc. Until now, household items from the times Ancient Greece And ancient rome. In one of the caves there is a small museum where you can see these artifacts with your own eyes.

On the way to the cape, you can enjoy endless fields of bright yellow sunflowers. Most beautiful photos from Bulgaria can be done right here.

8. Another wonderful Bulgarian town - Varna- the sea capital of Bulgaria. Varna - famous Black Sea resort in northeastern Bulgaria, recognized tourist capital countries. This is a historically established resort area with the richest natural resources, one of the most important and largest on the Black Sea and in Eastern Europe. In addition, Varna is a city with a very busy cultural life, claiming the title cultural capital Europe 2019. Prices in Varna are much cheaper than in other parts of the country.

Lots of greenery.

9. Sozopol. The charm of this city cannot be expressed in words. This is one of the oldest cities in Europe. I really wanted to feel surrounded ancient architecture. Sozopol is located 35 km south of Bourgas on a small picturesque peninsula. The old part of the city - architectural reserve. It is often called "Harmanit" because of the many mills - "harmans" that were located here in ancient times. You can go in any direction - the city is beautiful everywhere. Sozopol seems to be created for romantics and connoisseurs of antiquity. You can't get lost in this city, it's tiny - there are only 4 thousand inhabitants and almost everyone knows Russian. Young people easily switch to German and English. The city is built up with buildings no higher than three or four floors. Sozopol is divided into two parts: Old and New town between the park and the beach. Family hotels and hotels are concentrated in the New City. You can also live in the Old City. But very noisy in the evening. It's good to walk and relax there. I advise you to look Old city not in the evening, when a bunch of cafes and shops work there, tourists roam in droves, but early in the morning. You will see a completely different Sozopol, a real quiet, ancient city. Sozopol is a great option to stay if you are going on vacation with children.

Nothing escapes your gaze.

10. Ovech Fortress is located in Bulgaria east of Provadia, 53 kilometers west of Varna and 410 kilometers east of Sofia. Ovech Fortress is located in Bulgaria east of Provadia, 53 kilometers west of Varna and 410 kilometers east of Sofia. Historical sources present this place under various names. The oldest name is the Byzantine Provat, the Bulgarian name is Ovech, and the Turkish one is Tash-Hisar, which means “stone fortress” in translation.

Archaeological studies have shown that Byzantines, Thracians, Bulgarians, Romans and Turks consistently used this fortification in the third - early 7th centuries, later in the period from the 10th - 11th to the end of the 17th century. Events related to the reign of Tsar Ivailo in 1277-1280, the campaign of Count Amadeus VI of Savoy in 1366, and the campaign of the Polish-Hungarian king Vladislav III Jagiellon (Varnenchik) in 1444 were played here. Try to arrive at the fortress in the late afternoon. From the fortress you can enjoy the stunning Bulgarian sunset. The entrance to the fortress is paid. But we arrived in the evening and the guards were no longer there, and we passed for free.

The fortress is open all year round.

11. Stone forest(beaten stones) is unique natural phenomenon which has no analogue in the world. Located 20 km from Varna towards Sofia. The tourist center is the central group 800 m long. Other groups are scattered over an area of 50 sq. km. km. Geologists from all over the world visited stone forest and tried to unravel its mystery. Officially, there are 15 hypotheses. The most popular version is that the sea existed in these parts 50 million years ago. Geologists have named it the Lutesky Sea. Over time, three layers formed at the bottom of the sea. The lowest layer consisted of a gray-yellow marl base, a thick layer of quartz sand formed on it, the uppermost layer consisted of limestone. Over time, the water left these places. Under the influence of atmospheric conditions, the upper layer began to collapse. The lime-saturated rainwater of the upper layer began to penetrate into the lower layers of quartz sand. Thus, the layers began to be firmly soldered to each other and form from top to bottom large stone pillars, similar to the growths of stalactites that occur in caves.

An interesting fact is that many columns are hollow - that is, empty from the inside. So, according to another version, plants similar to tropical mango trees grew here. Stone pillars formed around the plants, and the plants rotted and eventually formed wastelands in the pillars. Entrance to the territory of the reserve is paid.

Internet reports interesting fact that many columns are hollow - i.e. empty inside. So, according to another version, plants similar to tropical mango trees grew here. Stone pillars formed around the plants, and the plants rotted and eventually formed wastelands in the pillars.

12. Nessebar- the pearl of Bulgaria: a masterpiece of architecture that has survived to our times. The city is located on a rocky peninsula 850 m long and 300 m wide, 37 km north of Bourgas.

Nessebar is one of ancient cities Europe.

Nessebar is included in the list of world cultural heritage: in 1956 it was declared a city-museum, and since 1983 Nessebar has been under the auspices of UNESCO.

Old Nessebar is an example of a miracle. Several centuries ago, he went under water, only a piece of land 850 by 300 meters remained in place, where all 40 city temples are collected. "Underwater Nessebar" is clearly visible from the boat in good weather.
