Destination
Bulgaria
Vast, varied Bulgaria offers rugged mountains, sandy Black‑Sea beaches, centuries‑old monasteries and lively towns where folk music drifts through market squares, while vineyards and kitchen gardens supply robust wines and hearty dishes that linger in memory.
Late spring brings mild temperatures, blossoming valleys and clear coastal breezes, making walks, hikes and seaside evenings especially pleasant.
