We targeted this area to visit the Rose Oil area on our way up to Velinko Turnovo, but heard about the art museum. What a pleasant surprise. They have two sections, the first devoted to history which includes neolithic, Thracian, Roman, Turk and finally Bulgaria. Very interesting. Then there is an artists section with great paintings. This is a very affordable and great way to spend a few hours.
