What travelers are saying
- laczkozsuDebrecen, Hungary1,690 contributionsWe took a one-day trip from Burgas (35kms) and visited this nice town, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage list. I agree, because it’s a picturesque town located on an island. It’s about 850m long and 350m wide. The Old Town consists of 100 traditional stone and wooden houses. They were built in 18-19th century. We were strolling in the narrow, cobbled streets and saw nice buildings, many shops and cafes. It’s a must-see site in Bulgaria.Written November 12, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- RachelLiverpool, UK14 contributionsLots of food and drink options that were super cheap! Only thing I could never get over was all the enclosed boxes for restaurants that were filled with people smoking, avoided them at all costs. To avoid this I just kept to the actual indoor restaurants.Written February 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Valerie4 contributionsBeautiful mountain, unbelievably close to the capital city ....just in 30 min from the hustle and bustle of Sofia center, you can enjoy a fresh mountain air, stunning views and /why not?/ a relaxing drink in a cosy restaurant, or if you are good enough a real mountine hike or skiing expirience.
