Bulgaria Veliko Tarnovo 2000
On the way to Varna to visit the sea capital of Bulgaria we have stopped suddenly in the old capital of Bulgaria Veliko Tarnovo.
Our train was moving too slow and we have spend about 7 hours just to move to there.We did not expect to visit really and we was so tired from the travel and we did not have any food or drinks during the trip. Tarnovo its connected with the second Bulgarian kingdom and we have visited the fortress "Tzarevez".The fortress its situated between the hills on Trapeziza and also Old forest. In the center of the town covered with lots of old Bulgarian Renaissance houses.The fairy street its one of the most fantastic streets to see.In the old part of the town you can enjoy the view of traditional houses from 1920s. We have staid in hotel "Gurko" for a night.The place had very nice beds and was very clean.Its the third time that I have visited Tarnovo.I was in there with my friends for a day.One of the best features of the town its the old church of Saint Dimitar. The town its situated on the banks of the river Yantra. The archaeological museum its situated on a squire "Saedinenie" In the third hall you can see golden and silver stamps from the kings and also some objects left from the time of the Thracians. The Thracian settlement its on the top of the hill "Tzarevez". There is also golden rings from the kings.Near Tarnovo its the complex Arbanasi also worth to visit. |
