Bulgaria

1 guide

Bulgaria is a crossroads of ancient Thracian tombs, Roman ruins, and Orthodox monasteries, all set against the backdrop of the Balkan Mountains and a sunny Black Sea coast. It offers Europe’s most affordable ski resorts and a Rose Valley that produces much of the world's rose oil, giving travelers a mix of raw nature, deep history, and everyday culture that feels genuine and unpolished.
