Nessebar  
Situated on a small peninsula (in the immediate vicinity of the large sea side
resort Sunny Beach), one of the oldest towns in Europe still exudes the spirit of different ages and
people - Thracians, Hellenes, Romans, Slavs, Byzantians and Bulgarians. |
Nessebar's greatest wealth are the numerous churches: the Old Bishop's Residence in an early Byzantian
style (4th - 5th century), the New Bishop's Residence (St.Stephan), containing valuable 12th century
murals, the Christ Pantocrator and Aliturgetos churches (13th - 14th century).
Nessebar's National Revival houses with stone foundations and broad wooden eaves, overhanging narrow
cobbled lanes leading to the sea, are also remarkably beautiful. |

Sozopol  
Apollonia - this is how it was called in 610 B.C. by its founders - Greek settlers
from Miletus, who erected a majestic bronze statue of the God of Health, Sun and Beauty Apollo above the
town. |
 |
Numerous black and red figutal vases, coloured glass vessels, jewelry, amphora and anchors, now exhibited
in the town's Museum of Ancient Art, date from the heyday of this flourishing town and state. The Bulgarian
National Revival period left its own vivid signs on the appearance of this unusual town, some 30 km south of
Burgas, with the architectural ensembles of solid wooden houses. |
