Old Nessebar is one of the oldest cities in Europe and the greatest historical treasure of Bulgaria. Built on a small rocky peninsula, it has preserved valuable historical monuments from antiquity, Roman times and the Middle Ages, old Byzantine and Bulgarian churches.

At the crossroads of culture, Nessebar was a starting line for many European concepts we take for granted today. Originally a Thracian settlement, it became a Greek colony at the beginning of the 6th century BC. But the peninsular town possesses more than the remains of an assortment of historic eras. Nessebar was once an important trading city and part of the Delian League: an alliance of ancient Greek states. During the centuries to follow, it remained a strategic nexus for the cultures and epochs that passed through this pivotal place.

Let's walk around this iconic city. I have tried to show you most of its sights.
