Exploring the charming and remarkable old town of Plovdiv
The old Plovdiv is one of the oldest European cities which was continuously inhabited since Ancient times. At the entrance is the Church of the Holy Mother of God – an impressive building which was constructed in 1844. Medieval streets with cobbled lanes will lead you further to the top of the hill where Ancient Theatre remained preserved from Roman times. Plovdiv has always been a large trading centre through the centuries, one of the major cultural centres of Bulgarian culture and tradition, and also an important centre for the Bulgarian national movement during the rule of the Ottoman empire. If you are interested, just google it and you will find a lot of information about the city and its history.

Красиво място е Пловдид, определено има какво да се види там. Аз съм била някаколко пъти, но честно казано нямам някакви ярки спомени. Сега ми се иска да отидем за няколко дни на спокойствие да разгледаме. Прекрасни снимки както винаги!
