| Description |
Bulgaria's natural landscape
is full of surprises - it has endless, sandy beaches along
the Black Sea, wild mountain ranges and lush green hills,
fertile plains, magnificent gorges, rivers, health spas and
natural springs... It is famous for long balmy Summers, dreamy
scented rose fields, richly coloured orchards and sundrenched
vine-yards .
Nestling at the heart of Central Europe, Bulgaria is a land
of unspoilt natural beauty, where time has been known to stand
still. It is a country of great contrasts.
Bulgaria is an interesting and intriguing experience for anyone:
for those who love the warm southern sea or snow-covered slopes,
for those who want to see it's cultural and historic monuments,
who wish to delight in its unique and living folklore, for
young people fond of sports, for families with children, for
the aged and people who need treatment, for those who dream
of carefree holidays.
A country open to the world where the roads of big tourism
cross. |

| It is also renowned as a Winter
Wonderland - with snow-laden mountains and pine forests stretching
out as far as the eye can see, glistening like diamonds against
an ever-blue sky. |

| Conditions will vary depending
on when & where visited. Coastal areas enjoy hot, sunny
summers although sudden blustery thunderstorms are not uncommon.
Winters are usually mild but can suffer from particularly cold
spells strong enough to freeze the Danube. Inland, summers are
warm to hot with cold winters. In mountain areas summers are
sunny but cooler & winters cold & fresh with snow |
