Spending Your Holiday In Bulgaria

By David Francis


Being among the most beautiful European destinations, Bulgaria is a relatively small country, located on the Balkan Peninsula. It attracts tourists with a big variety of sights and interesting places, with its beaches and summer resorts, spa and balneo centers, breathtaking scenery of high mountain ranges, rivers, lakes, vast lowlands and Black Sea coast.

Thousands of tourists are attracted each year by the great Bulgarian sights, most popular of which is the Black Sea coast. Sunny Beach resort is the most famous and biggest one, located close to the city of Bourgas, followed by Golden Sands resort, which is close to the Sea capital of Bulgaria, Varna. Some tourists prefer these and other Bulgarian sandy beach resorts even to the famous Spain and Greece resorts, which are much more expensive. The nightlife here is active and dynamic and young people can visit any of the restaurants and night bars available.

Along the coast, beautiful small ancient towns of Balchik, Sozopol and Nesebar are located that attract people from all over the world who are interested in archaeology and valuable relics of the past.

The beauty and attraction of this country is not limited to the coast and the beach resorts, which are actually only a small part of Bulgarian treasures. It offers a lot more sights in other parts of the country, where tourists can meet with local people's culture, traditions and significant landmarks.

The most visited monastery in Bulgaria is the famous Rila Monastery, located in beautiful Rila Mountain in southwestern part of the country. Being a breathtaking place, this is a sight that should be visited at least once by every tourist. St. John of Rila is its founder, who started the construction in the 10th century. Many reconstructions are made over the years, but the last one is made in 19th century.

This is not the only attraction that the Rila Mountain can offer. Another popular attraction beloved by the nature lovers is called Seven Rila Lakes, which form a natural mountain cirque. All of these lakes have specific form and name. "The Tear" is the highest lake, found at 2535 meters in height, while "The Eye" is the deepest lake. As the name suggests "The Kidney" is in the form of kidney, while "The Twins" is the longest lake that is split into two parts. "Three-Lobed Lake" has a strange irregular form, "The Fish Lake" is the shallowest of all and "The Low Lake" is the lowest one located at 2095 meters in height.

Visit other amazing Bulgarian sights like Tsarevets, a medieval stronghold located in the old town of Veliko Turnovo, which long time ago was a natural fortress and a capital of Bulgarian Kingdom.

Another gorgeous place to visit is located in the central Bulgaria, in the beautiful small town of Gabrovo. There is an open ancient ethnographic museum, Etara that shows Bulgarian ethnography, folklore and architecture in its authentic form. Tourists can see how the craftsmen make traditional dishes and other ancient handicrafts and buy them as souvenirs.
