About Plovdiv

Plovdiv is built on seven hills (like Rome) and layers 8,000 years of history. The beautifully restored Old Town perches on three central hills, its colorful Revival-period houses (with their distinctive overhanging upper floors) lining cobblestone lanes. The magnificently preserved 2nd-century Roman Amphitheatre still hosts performances against a backdrop of modern Plovdiv. The ancient Roman Stadium lies beneath the main pedestrian street, the Ethnographic Museum occupies a gorgeous symmetric Revival house, and the vibrant Kapana creative district buzzes with galleries, cafes, and street art. Plovdiv's wine bars, rooftop terraces, and Thracian wine region nearby make it an emerging destination.
