The city features the only covered bridge in the Balkans, designed by master builder Kolyu Ficheto, and the medieval Hisarya Fortress, the site of the 1187 peace treaty. Nearby, the Devetashka Cave offers a massive karst interior with seven distinct skylights. Cultural sites include the Virtual Water Museum, housed in a restored Ottoman bath, and the expansive Stratesh Park, home to the White Monument and one of Bulgaria's largest zoos.
