Bulgaria is one of the most beautiful and diverse crossroads in Europe today. Surrounded by five countries and located on a prime part of the Balkan peninsula, this country has become a multicultural must-see. Natural wonders like the Balkan Mountains and the Black Sea Coast, architectural sites such as the remains of Plodiv, and hip, urban centers like Sofia—there's something to satisfy any traveler's tastes in Bulgaria.
