Veliko Tarnovo was the capital of Bulgaria, and the fortress of Tsarevets attests to this. However, it is a journey that takes a long time by bus and the one that remains to visit freely the fortress (very ruined) and the city is not too much.

Veliko Tarnovo is quite a different place and the "Tsarevets" (fortress) is definitely worth the trip!
