 The Tourist Info Centre by johngayton I personally never had cause to use this info office but it is there for general tourist info on Varna and the surrounding area. It looks pretty chic though and peeking inside there seems to be plenty of brochures and bits and pieces on offer. I don't know whether it does things like accommodation etc. but having gotten to know Varna a little I'm sure that the staff would be friendly and helpful. The location is (I think) on Alexander Batenberg Street which is just off the pedestrianised Knyaz Boris 1, not far from the main square. Leave a Comment

by jani79 If you happen to be in Zlatni Pyasatsi then you must take advantage of free pools, which are situated near (almost) every hotel. The best ones are those by the beach! Leave a Comment

by denise_BG Varna was founded as Odessus by Milesian Greeks in the 6th century BC; later it was Thracian and Roman. In AD 681 it became part of the First Bulgarian empire (c. 679-1018) and was named Varna. During the reign (1218) of Ivan Asen II, it became a thriving centre of trade with Genoa, Venice, and Dubrovnik. After falling under Ottoman domination in 1391, it continued to grow in importance. In 1444, in a pitched battle fought nearby, the Turkish armies of Murad II routed the armies of the last Christian Crusade against the Turks in the Balkans. The Russians captured Varna in 1828 during the war for the liberation of Greece, but, when they left, the city reverted to the Turks. In 1854 Varna became a base for Anglo-French troops operating against Sevastopol during the Crimean War. It was liberated from the Turks in 1878 and ceded to Bulgaria by the Treaty of Berlin. After the building of the Ruse-Varna railway in 1866 and the rail link to Sofia in 1899, the town expanded further. A modern harbour was constructed in 1906.

by Natallie Take a walk round Varna center. Varna is called a pearl of Black Sea. And that's true! I think it's the best place on the Bulgaria's sea coast. It's population: 300 000. And it is situated in a wonderful place among green mountains.
Independence Square is situated in the center of the city. Here stands red building of the Varna Opera House. You can start your walking tour here. Varna is typically southern city. Southern flora, southern buildings and southern temperament. Leave a Comment
