Wonderful place. The road in the last 5 km. is a bit more difficult and has to go with a taller car (best 4x4), but it's worth it :). It is recommended that more information boards be placed in and out of the fortress.

Dating to the 12th century, this strategic fortress is one of two highly fortified hills (Trapezitza being the other) that protected Bulgarian rulers living on the site in the tsar’s palace.

Tsarevets is a medieval stronghold located on a hill with the same name in Veliko Tarnovo. If you are going there on the summer..bring a hat its quite hot when its sunny. The Sound and Light audiovisual show is an attraction carried out in the evening that uses three lasers, variegated lights, dramatic music and church bells to tell the story of the fall of Tarnovo to the Ottomans, as well as other key moments of the history of Bulgaria. It was free on every Saturday of the week and it was a great experience.

The Castle “In Love with the Wind” is the child’s dream made true of Georgi Kostadinov Tumpalov (1956) who is its architect, designer and developer from the very beginning when in the distant 1996 he drew with a spade a big cross on the soil over which his family worked 24 hours day and night assisted by the workers from the neighbouring village of Ravadinovo and with God’s help managed to build stone by stone a magnificent castle - a dream that came true, created with much love!

It is a very interesting place, just 10 minutes driving from Sozopol. Despite being a newly built construction, it is worth the visit, especially for families with small children. A modern fairytale.

Balchik Palace is really not a palace, but a wonderful retreat estate built on the beach at Black Sea. The Villa and surrounding gardens full of beautiful flower, cacti and succulents species belinged to Queen Maria of Romania, back in the days when this area was part of bigger Romania (The Cadrilater region). The palace/villa is not as big as one would expect (only has several rooms) but the surroundings are beautiful. It also has a private Winery where you can buy hand made limited edition artisan wines with very interesting flavours (fig, rose, berries, etc) that can only be found here at the Queen’s Winery.
