Explore Bulgaria's Time Treasure Box - Plovdiv

In the heart of Bulgaria, there is a city carved by time - Plovdiv. It is like a thick history book, every page is filled with stories, and every corner exudes unique charm. When you step into this city, it’s like embarking on a wonderful journey through time and space. Ancient Roman Theater: This theater built in the 2nd century AD is the most dazzling historical pearl of Plovdiv. Standing in the center of the theater, you can look up and see the ancient stone walls and the blue sky against each other. Imagine that a thousand years ago, this place was packed with people enjoying a feast of drama and music. Today, the theater is still active and hosts various performances every year. When the melodious tunes sound, history and reality seem to be intertwined at this moment. Old Town: Stepping into the Old Town is like walking into a medieval painting. The cobbled streets meander through the city, lined with well-preserved Bulgarian National Revival buildings. With colorful exterior walls and exquisite wooden carved window frames, every house tells of its past prosperity. Here, you can walk into a small shop at will, pick up a handicraft full of local style, or sit down in a street cafe, order a cup of fragrant coffee, quietly appreciate the passers-by, and feel the comfort of life. Plovdiv Archaeological Museum: If you are curious about history, this museum is not to be missed. The museum houses a large number of cultural relics from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages. Walking through it feels like traveling through a time tunnel. From exquisite ancient Greek pottery to Roman sculptures, from ancient coins to various daily necessities, each exhibit carries a piece of history and gives you a deeper understanding of Bulgaria's past. Liulin Park: If you are tired of visiting historical sites, you may want to come to Liulin Park to relax. The park is shaded by green trees and has clear lake water, making it a great place for local people to relax and have fun. Strolling along the lake, admiring the scenery of the lake and mountains, breathing the fresh air, all the fatigue disappeared. Children were laughing and playing on the grass, and young people were riding bicycles around, creating a lively scene.
