The land of roses, Bulgaria, is a small country of ancient culture, scenic beauty, friendly people, hospitality and warmth situated in south-eastern Europe.  It occupies the central part of Balkan peninsula on both sides of the Balkan Range (the Balkans), from which the peninsula has taken its name.  The greater part of the northern border with Romania passes along the Danube, and the eastern border is the Black Sea.  The borders are with Yugoslavia and Macedonia to the west, Turkey to the south-east, and Greece to the south.

There is an extensive network of air, road and train services.  Most tourist sites are accessible by public transport.  Buses are common for urban transport and trams and trolley buses are typical in the big cities.  There are many taxis in all towns and car hire is amongst the cheapest in Europe.

Today, Bulgaria has a renewed sense of pride and optimism.  Visitors can enjoy a new energy and a wonderfully fresh spirit on its streets; there's designer boutiques and cosmopolitan cuisine, grocery stores full of local produce and glossy magazines on the news-stands.

In Bulgaria you can step into swirling modern health spas or plunge into mud baths that date back to Roman times.  Winter ski in the mountains of Bansko or enjoy the summer playgrounds of the Black Sea Riviera.  Depending on how you feel, you can spend the day scuba diving, water skiing and paragliding or simply relax from dawn to dusk.  With something for everyone and a great future just starting, Bulgaria is the place to be in the 21st Century.

Roman Amphitheatre at Plovdiv

Bulgaria is heir to one of Europe’s greatest civilisations, with numerous Greek and Roman historic sites.  It is well endowed with museums and galleries, ancient monasteries, churches and mosques, as well as wonderfully preserved rustic villages and cobbled alleys.

Its rich and vibrant culture is set against a spectacular backdrop of mountains, dense forests, lush valleys and sandy beaches that rival anything in the Mediterranean.  This showcase of wonders together with its economic reformation makes this the time to be part of Bulgaria’s burgeoning prosperity by investing in property.
