EUROPE'S HIDDEN GEM! Most Beautiful Town In Bulgaria 🇧🇬

This town is one of Europe’s best-kept secrets! Tucked away in the Balkans, this is Bulgaria’s most beautiful town.
Once Bulgaria’s first capital, Veliko Tarnovo is full of rich history, culture, architecture and incredible nature. From an ancient fortress to getting lost in the charming side streets, we explored the best things to do in Veliko Tarnovo. And best of all, we indulged in delicious traditional Bulgarian food! From the famous Shopska Salad to the lesser-known Patatnik, we fell in love with Bulgaria food.

    Bulgaria is very underrated and I think you guys have done a better job showing it to the world than anyone else on KZread. Terrific! It's important to give exposure to lesser known parts of Europe. Everyone knows about Italy, France and Spain. But Bulgaria is actually older than all of them and has a very rich cultural heritage, beautiful folklore, beautiful nature, delicious food, great weather... There's so much to see in Bulgaria as you guys have shown. Keep up the good work!

    Many years ago I was smitten by a woman who received a Fulbright grant to teach in Sofia. I went to visit her and she knew I liked history so we spent a weekend in Veliko Turnovo. I rember eating gyuvtch and that salad and drinking Bulgarian beer and our hosts gave us some sort of fruit moonshine. I still have a plate with a chicken on it that I got there. It was so long ago that these memories feel like they belong to someone else

    Tarnovo, or as it was called in the middle ages Tarnovgrad, was the capital of the second Bulgarian Empire - since 1186 to 1396. The pictures you see in the signs are actualy an image of what we think it looked like back in the days. It was mostly destroyed by the ottomans during their conquest of the Balkans in 14th century. Sad history...

    This wasn't Bulgaria's first capital. Its the last capital of the Second Bulgarian Empire before being enslaved by the Ottoman empire in the 14th century. Until the 19th century when Sofia was chosen as capital. Bulgaria has existed for 500 years before Tarnovo became the capital. Bulgaria has been at this location and called Bulgaria for almost 1400 years now. The first capital is called Pliska and there are very cool excavations there.

    Hi, just a few notes about Veliko Tărnovo and Bulgarian kitchen. First of all, the Bulgarian people love to eat …. a lot. So the portions are not family sized it’s just Bulgarian sized. The patatnik is very famous dish in Rodopa mountain region. Veliko Tărnovo is the third Bulgarian capital and become capital of the second Bulgarian kingdom , after Bulgaria get its freedom from eastern Roman Empire. The carevec fortress is actually the king residence and is archeological artefact , that’s why there is almost only ruins ( sorry about the absence of English notes about the history of the place) . I know all this because I’m from Plovdiv ,the oldest city in Europe and one of the oldest cities in the world. And it’s time to stop because I probably start being boring. Thanks for all the good words and recommendations for my country and I can assure you that there is a lot more places in Bulgaria that’s are totally magical.

    You (probably) missed the stunning views from the Monument of Assen where you can see almost the entire old city from below and the mini-Bulgaria sculpture just down by the town combining Bulgaria's famous landmarks and the quite close nearby village of Arbanassi and town of Tryavna. When you mentioned British retirees, that is true as in the nearby area many of them bought houses when Bulgaria joined the EU in 2007 and in the whole VT region you are highly likely to bump into those. Bulgaria is a humble choice for them to retire because of the peace and quiet and low prices, good food, etc.

    All Englishmen are welcome in my country, as they welcomed me in the England of the time. I know that you are not in the EU now, but there is always a place for you in Bulgaria. If I were you, I would buy a property in Bulgaria, as opposed to France, Germany, etc. countries - the most English is spoken in the Netherlands and Bulgaria. And the prices are ridiculous, for a property in such wonderful nature. It's not a desert like Spain or a Scandinavian winter. Let's not forget that Greece is nearby, but the heat is murderous there, so you live in Bulgaria and go to the sea in Greece for 1 hour by car. Or on the Black Sea in Bulgaria. Constantinople (Istanbul) is also close to you. Bulgaria is mythical, Hercules, Alexander the Great, Orpheus were born here and even his grave was discovered. in Bulgaria and many others. It was the center of the world in ancient times.(Bulgaria)

    Just seen your Veliko Tarnovo & Sofia videos and I want to thank You for such beautiful representation of my country! If you would like to visit Bulgaria again I recommend you choose between Plovdiv and Pleven or Burgas and Varna. Cheers from Bulgaria!

    So "Glarus" is better than the beer you drink "Kaminitsa". Zatecky Hus is the best beer (IMO). It's not bulgarian beer but it's made in Bulgaria. I recommend trying it!

    I am glad to hear you liked all you see and especially the food in Bulgaria! For my opinion you went too late in Tsarevets and you did not see Balduinova kula and remains from the Castle there, also a rock where the girls went down from because they did not wish to get the Islam religion. In Bulgaria you can find many other small towns and villages with a topical old architecture like Jeravna, Melnik, Kopritshtitsa, Zlatograd, Bansko, Old Plovdiv and many other places that are famous with different things like Etera, Damascena, Testi Mali grad. Should be seen also Pliska and Preslav that were also old capital cities of Bulgaria. There are many interesting monasteries in Bulgaria, unique Caves and many places with old remains. Unfortunately long years under Turkish government were the years when Turkish destroyed our old cities, so why now we have only remains from this long period of time. There are also a few big winter resorts for saying in Bulgaria like Bansko, Pamporovo, Borovets, Vitosha. There are some places also for Birdwatching in Bulgaria. Our high mountains also has an alpine view and are nice places for hiking but this you know already. 😀 There are many and many places of interests you can go and see in Bulgaria, I recommend you all you read here! 👍

    Hey you 2, pretty good videos about my country Bulgaria. I like your passion of travel and explore and specially more so to get into the food and so people factor,maybe you show that more with your travels,local people,! And also some more historical information too.like the Rila monastery is like 12 century or less..that be nice to put a bit more historical facts, yes beer,rakia and food is the best in my country. By the way I live in Florida over 16 years and I always miss our Bulgarian food and drinks,traditional.👍❤️

    What a pity that you missed visiting the Church of the Holy Forty Martyrs, where stone columns inscribed with deeds and events of many of our ancient rulers are displayed! This is also how the decision for the unification of Bulgaria was signed in this 13th century church in 1889! This church, which is now restored on the foundations of the old building, is loaded with centuries-old history! It is located on the right on the road from the entrance to the Tsarevets fortress, just 5-10 minutes on foot...! And it's even more unfortunate that you haven't visited the historic village of Arbanasi, which is 10 kilometers from Veliko Tarnovo...! Not to mention how many more historical sites there are nearby..! I also want to congratulate you for your correctness and respect for our culture and history! Something really rare for American tourists..! Hearty greetings and respect!

    Who would not appreciate a video that is spreading a good word about a place that is more than worth visiting? It will be helpfull though if you had more info than "nice" and "beautiful" The artist that you see on the streets are probably art students because Tarnovo is home of one of best specialised Art Universities in Bulgaria.

    The title is deceiving, I don't think the authors have spent enough time in BG. So as someone who actually lives in BG I can tell there are many other places that are just as beautiful, like Sozopol or Plovdiv. I've been to Veliko Turnovo and while nice I would say Plovdiv is more beautiful, especially when visiting some of the hill neighborhoods.

    Great video only: kachamaka is made from cornmeal and cheese although the original recipe is without cheese and is just like italian polenta as you mentioned. And another small detail, Veliko Tarnovo is the third capital of Bulgaria (the third largest,it's actually the fifth), first are Pliska and Veliki Preslav (they are also great small towns, but rather culturally and historically). The other two capitals before Veliko Tarnovo are Ohrid (that's right, the city after which Lake Ohrid is named) and Bitola, but today they are unfortunately no longer part of Bulgaria but of the Republic of North Macedonia, but they are still worth seeing. Just in case, Bulgaria was founded in 681, which makes it one of the first countries in Europe. before that there was Old Great Bulgaria (Khan Kubrat) and Bulgaria with today's geographical position was founded by Khan Asparukh, one of the sons of Khan Kubrat. The colorful architecture is due to the mixing of the traditional Bulgarian style with Greek and Turkish (when we were under Greek rule (by stealth) and Turkish slavery - lasted 5 centuries)
