Alexander Nevski Cathedral
Visit the Balkan Peninsula's largest Orthodox cathedral
Bulgaria, nestled in the Balkans, enchants travelers with its unique blend of historical heritage and natural beauty. Rich in cultural heritage, this country stands out for its ancient traditions, savory cuisine, and diverse landscapes, ranging from the golden beaches of the Black Sea to the snowy peaks of the Rhodope Mountains.
The capital Sofia is known for its historical landmarks such as the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and its rich Soviet heritage. In Plovdiv, you can discover one of the oldest still functioning ancient theaters and a picturesque old town. Do not miss Varna, the pearl of the Black Sea, famous for its sandy beaches and the sea garden. The city of Veliko Tarnovo will charm you with its Tsarevets medieval fortress and stunning hilltop views.
When exploring Bulgaria, feel free to venture into lesser-known but equally charming regions like the mountain villages of Bansko or the vast plains of Thrace for a complete immersion in Bulgarian culture.
