This town was the Bulgarian capital during the so-called Second Bulgarian Kingdom between the 12^th and the 14^th century. There you will be able to feel the medieval spirit.  Veliko Tarnovo is situated along several big hills and the river Yantra. It is remarkable for its well-preserved fortress. There you will be able to discover some of its very old churches and see beautiful panoramic views.

Bellow the fortress are situated some of the old merchant streets, which still present old- style crafts. The tour in the town is about an hour and a half.
