Twelve to fourteenth century Veliko Tarnovo was once the capital of Bulgaria. The ancient city was built on the hills. The remains of the palace and castle towered on the hills of Chalevitz. The glory of the period is still identifiable. Walk in the old town, the river valley passes through the city. Several or modern or classical murals attracted me to stop and enjoy. On the day of our arrival on May 24th, it coincided with the Bulgarian education culture and the Slavic byte, and people dressed up to celebrate the festival. The Tsarevets Castle Music Light Show after the night is a repertoire here.

THE BEAUTIFUL TRAPEZITZA!

Trapezitsa (Bulgarian: Трапезица) is a medieval stronghold located on a hill with the same name in Veliko Tarnovo in northern Bulgaria. The name of Trapezitza is believed to derive from the word “трапеза” (table) or from “trapezium” as is the shape of the plateau. The most likely origin is the word “trapezits” – soldiers guarding the passes who were the first settlers on the hill in the Middle Ages. #passionpassport #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #cafe #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #couplestrip #2023travelwish #passionpassport

UNIQUE ATMOSPHERE'S RESTAURANT!

The Hadji Nikoli Inn of Veliko Tarnovo is part of the Bulgarian cultural and historical hetitage and a unique masterpiece from the age of the Bulgarian Renaissance. The inn was built in 1858 for Hadji Nikoli - a famous Turnovo tradesman who took an active part in the struggle for an independent Bulgarian Orthodox Church. The architect and builder was the native genius builder master Kolyo Ficheto who created a magnificent monumental building compared to a Venetian Palace even today. The Inn is also significant because of the fact that it is the only one of all 70 inns built in the city that survived over the years. Recently restored and renovated, it is now open for visitors as a complex of a restaurant, cafe, wine-bar with a wine-shop, museum and an Art gallery. #passionpassport #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #cafe #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #couplestrip #2023travelwish #passionpassport
