Plovdiv Plovdiv No Data

Description


The second city of the country, and reputedly one of the longest inhabited cities in Europe, with a continuous population dating back over 6000 years. The city was built over seven hills (much like Rome, Lisbon, Edinburgh, Bath etc.!), though in this case the seventh hill was quarries away to create paving blocks so today just six hills remain. The city has lots of Roman remains, along with historic buildings and galleries - being the cultural capital of the country
