| Six Great Reasons to Visit Veliko Tarnovo | ||
Rich History and CultureFamous for being the capital of a medieval Bulgarian empire that lasted for about three centuries, Veliko Tarnovo was one of the cultural centers of Europe during that time. The painting and architecture style of the Tarnovo Artistic School are world renowned, and so were the literary masterpieces created here. The buildings, in the old part of town, the fortress overlooking Veliko, they will all mesmerize you. I particularly love walking on the narrow, cobbled streets of the city in the evening, after a delicious dinner. If you travel in the summer, there are gelato stands everywhere. And the gelato sold here is to die for! Cheap too, just so you can’t help yourself. Great Hotels that Won’t Break the Bank Hotels in Veliko come in all shapes, locations, and sizes. Some of them are exquisite, the boutique hotels are boldly decorated, and the larger ones will take you on a trip down Communist memory lane. They are all comfortable, breakfasts are usually included in your room rate, and prices are more than reasonable, even during high season. It’s not that difficult to find a double room for around EUR 50 at any time and with as little as two days’ advance booking. Yup, did that a time or two, booked last minute. My favorite hotel is Concorde. I’ve booked it numerous times because of the red or purple decor in their VIP rooms. The Jacuzzi tubs, complementary champagne, and the Mojitos at the top floor bar might have also played a part in that decision. Lick-Your-Fingers Delicious Food Restaurants in Veliko Tarnovo are simply magnificent! The local dishes, anything else they cook from other European or Turkish cuisines, it’s just all so delicious, lunch and dinner should both happen a few times a day. The food is cheap, even at the higher priced restaurants. I once went there on a trip around my birthday and took three friends out for a meal. The price for a the whole deal (two courses for each of us, and lots of drinks) was about EUR 40. The local beer is also amazing. Veliko Tarnovo’s Dramatic Landscapes Whether you visit the citadel, look down on the city from the many vantage points, or simply drive around, you’ll be mesmerized. You’re surrounded by mountains to start with, and the river and three hills that make up Veliko’s location further build on the scenery to take your breath away. The season doesn’t really make much difference. There’s always something beautiful to catch your eye. The Street Art You blink, and new street art pops up. Or at least it seems so, as with every visit to Veliko Tarnovo, there’s more street art to discover. And I mean art, big endeavors that always have me stop in my tracks to admire them. No random tags or spray painted names, but beautiful drawings adorning the walls of buildings, passages, and stairways. Unfortunately, I managed to lose quite a few snapshots of Veliko’s amazing street art. Not all of them though! Of course, there are bars, clubs, parks, and lots of monuments to explore as well, and those I’ve listed are just the top reasons to give Veliko Tarnovo a go. For a bit of a fun fact, you’ll spot a lot of nice looking cars and bikes on weekends, especially if there are weddings happening. They park in front of city hall, and then make a ruckus on the main streets. And teenage girls seemed to favor the same frizzy, big hair do for a few years in a row. It was quite heartwarming to come back to familiar places and people, and now that I’ve talked about it, I really, really need to go back! Who’s coming with me? Source: http://pettraveltales.com/ |
