Bulgaria`s second largest city is a worthy rival to Sofia. Its situation astride the river Maritsa
and its three hills which are prominent features of the Thracian plain, indicate its strategic significance
and account for its long tradition as an inhabited place. Here Thracians, Romans, Byzantines, Ottoman
Turks an Bulgarians have all made an architectural impression. Plovdiv is very, very old. The Eternal
City, as Rome is conventionally called, is much younger. Athens, Carthage and Constantinople came
into being later. Cultural capital of Europe for 1999. And if you are in the mood of adventure, explore
the famous Bachkovo Monastey (11th c.) nestled amidst the slopes of the Rhodope Mountains nearby.
Enjoy the murals (17th c.) of the monastery's churches.
* Our tour includes transfer by A/C car or bus, guide assistance, entrance fee to 2 museums
and lunch (3 course menu and soft drink)
