Description

On this all-day tour you will discover one of the most impressive sites in Plovdiv. Explore the Old Town, an architectural and historical area. This part with houses from the National Revival period (18-19th century), is an imposing open-air museum situated on the three hills of the ancient Trimontium. One of the most remarkable sights of the town, the Ancient Theater (a well-preserved Roman theater), is located there and is still used for open-air performances. Continue your history lesson at the remains of the Roman Theater from the 2nd century, which have been restored and is now used today for different performances and festivals. Your walk continues down to the partly uncovered Roman Stadium and the 14th century Djumaya Mosque. Finally the tour ends at the long and lovely main pedestrian commercial street with many cafes and shops, where you can experience the unique laid-back atmosphere of this spectacular city.
