An hour’s journey from Bucharest unveils the treasures of Bulgaria. The UNESCO heritage recognized Tsarevets medieval fortress in Veliko Tarnovo, with its vintage cobbled streets and unparalleled views, is a sight to behold. Taking a detour in time, the Dryanovo Monastery offers a glimpse into the spirit of antiquity, especially if Orthodoxy is a realm yet unexplored for you. The crown jewel of the day has to be the Bacho Kiro Cave. This maze-like cave teeming with tunnels and passages is reminiscent of a mythical world beneath the earth’s surface. Sealed within it are some of Europe’s oldest human fossils, approximately 46,000 years old. The pristine natural beauty of the Andaka and Dryanovo River canyons marks it as one of Europe’s untouched wildernesses.
