Car Rental Bulgaria

Bulgaria is a Republic in Eastern Europe, which stands out due to its varied landscape. The Balkan State impresses by its white sandy beaches of the Black Sea coast, as well as by the harsh, wild beauty in the Rhodope Mountains, a mountain region in the South of the country.

The Musala peak is the highest point in Bulgaria, but on the whole Balkan Peninsula with 2925 meters not only. The largest cities of the State include the capital Sofia, Varna and Bourgas, and Plovdiv and Pleven. Also Turkish, Greek, Macedonian and Romani is spoken alongside Bulgarian as an official language.

The history of Bulgaria goes back far into antiquity, the country time and again came under foreign rule. The dominant and longest reign went out by the Ottoman Empire and before the Byzantines. This influence is evident even today still very clearly in the architecture of some cities or in the numerous mosques, monasteries and churches of the country.

One of the most famous is the Rila Monastery in the same name from the 10th century. The sacred building now belongs to the UNESCO World Heritage site. The Rila mountain range is only about 75 kilometres from the capital Sofia and is the center of emerging ski tourism in Bulgaria at the same time. Three ski resorts offer optimal conditions for alpine sports, as well as for biathlon and cross-country skiing. Interesting is also the sunny beach, Bulgaria's largest seaside resort and popular holiday destination for many tourists.

Bulgaria has a well-developed road network, which is also largely paved. Making it an ideal travel destination for the discovery of a car, especially since many cultural monuments are quite remote, and are not particularly easy to reach by bus.
