Bansko
One of the most remarkable places in Bulgaria is Bansko. This cute, small, well-groomed town is among the high mountains that surround it from all sides. And this gives Bansko a special charm and incredible popularity. Bansko is especially good for family holidays. There is a great number of family pensions and hotels built.
There is a resort in the south-western part of Bulgaria in the territory of the National Park "Pirin". But Bansko is not just a resort, it's not just a bunch of hotels and guesthouses that are built for the joy of tourists. This is an ancient Bulgarian town with its own history, traditions and monuments. And this is what makes Bansko the most popular resort in Bulgaria.
Located Bansko is 160 kilometers from the airport in Sofia and 220 kilometers from the airport in Plovdiv. So it will not be difficult to get to Bansko. From both airports there are direct flights that bring tourists to the heart of the mountains - the ski resort of Bansko. It is necessary to say that only in Bansko from all the resorts of Bulgaria is the longest season for skiers. It begins in the very beginning of December, and ends only in May.
In addition to the ski slopes in Bansko, you can just walk along the streets and look at the houses of local residents. I must say that most of them were built in the 18-19th centuries, and people are very concerned about the safety of their homes. In the heart of the city there is an Orthodox Church of the Holy Trinity, which was built in 1835. In addition, there are a lot of mineral springs in and around the city.
Slaven Bansko and its Bulgarian restaurants. And it's not just restaurants in our understanding. This is a small wine cellar that will meet you with an incredible amount of different wines. This is a tavern, which is famous throughout the country for its national dishes, and the road to which can be found by smell. This is a pizzeria, in which an incredibly tasty and aromatic pizza is prepared. And, of course, the mechanics "Sharkovata kyshta", which will please you with its hospitality and service in Russian.
Borovets
Another popular ski resort in Bulgaria is Borovets. It is located 70 kilometers from Sofia on the slope of Rila Mountain. Unlike Bansko, Borovets is not just a city. This place was founded as a hunting ground, and was the most popular place for the Bulgarian kings. But time has passed and today everyone can enjoy all the beauty of this place. And the knowledge that here once lived and hunted the most real kings, gives some piquancy.
It is here that the longest and most comfortable ski slopes are located. It is here that the trainers are not ordinary people - lovers of mountain skiing, but the real athletes, some of whom once performed at the Olympics and won medals.
This resort town has just a huge number of hotels. After all for the whole winter season, not one thousand people are resting here. And the service in these hotels is always maintained at a very high level.
Borovets is a resort of the highest category. It is impossible to forget his evergreen forests that surround him from all sides. It is impossible to forget the fresh mountain air, which smells so special, and you want to breathe more and more from it just fuller. It is impossible to forget the ski slopes that are equipped at the highest level, and skating on which brings a lot of positive emotions. It is impossible to forget the very Bulgaria, which gives its tourists all the best and dearest things that are in this country.
