Que faire à Plovdiv

Plovdiv's Absolute Essentials

Plovdiv, one of Europe’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, centers around its remarkably preserved Roman amphitheatre and the 2nd-century Stadium of Philippopolis. 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.
