We will take you on a journey to the heart of the Bulgarian countryside to visit one of the most significant monument of culture in the town of Veliko Tarnovo.

The medieval fortress Tsarevets, situated on the homonymous peak, surrounded on three sides by the river Yantra. In fact the fortress was built before more than 5,000 years ago, which is proven by archaeological excavations.

In this trip you will be able to feel the romance of the old town. Where the medieval kings reigned over the centuries to visit unique churches under the fortress pillars of the Bulgarian spirit.
Also this is a city with many attractions and one of the most popular tourist destinations in Bulgaria. Its unique location on the three hills Tsarevets, Trapezitsa and Mount Athos, makes the city one of the most beautiful in Bulgaria. The ancient city can enchant and leave without words anyone who once steps on its narrow cobbled streets.
