About Bulgaria

Bulgaria is home to a diverse range of historical and natural attractions. Don't miss the picturesque Rila Monastery, Sofia's imposing Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the ancient Roman Theatre in Plovdiv, or the Black Sea's charming old town of Nessebar. The impressive fortress of Tsarevets in Veliko Tarnovo and the otherworldly Belogradchik Rocks are also must-see destinations.
Kids will love exploring the castles and fortresses of Bulgaria, such as Tsarevets Fortress, which often holds light shows. The various water parks and beaches along the Black Sea coast provide plenty of fun in the sun. Museums with interactive exhibits like Muzeiko and the Sofia Zoo are also perfect for family outings.
Outdoor adventures abound in Bulgaria, from skiing in Bansko or hiking in the Vitosha, Pirin, and Rila mountains, to bird watching in the Strandzha Nature Park. Summer activities include sunbathing and water sports on the Black Sea coast, or hot air ballooning over the scenic countryside.
For indoor fun, Bulgaria offers a wide range of activities including indulging in spa treatments at the many mineral springs, enjoying opera performances, exploring the country's rich history in various museums, or wine tasting at local vineyards and cellars.
Explore Bulgaria's rich cultural tapestry and picturesque landscapes through self-guided audio tours available for Sofia's historical center, Plovdiv's Old Town, the rock churches of Ivanovo, and Rila Monastery. Scenic driving tours through the Rhodope Mountains and culinary experiences in the Rose Valley are also among the best tours in the country.
Some of Bulgaria's most visited museums include the National History Museum and National Archaeological Museum in Sofia, the Regional Ethnographic Museum in Plovdiv, the Varna Archaeological Museum, and the Kazanlak Thracian Tomb. Each offers a unique insight into Bulgaria's rich past and cultural heritage.
For rainy days, consider cultural indoor tours such as those of Sofia's museums and galleries, Varna's Archaeological Museum, or Plovdiv's historical houses. Visiting wineries for tastings, spa resorts for relaxation, or enjoying interactive museums like Muzeiko can also provide a delightful escape from the weather.
