The architectural reserve of the Old Town features National Revival houses like Balabanov House and the Ethnographic Museum, set atop historic hills. Religious history is represented by the 14th-century Djumaya Mosque and the ancient Church of St. Constantine and St. Helena. The pedestrian Main Street links these historical sites with modern commerce and the city's archaeological museum.
