The city of Sandanski itself is not rich in interesting places, the only thing that I want to mention is the city park. which the. really. Beautiful.
But, stopping in Sandanski and taking care in advance about the car, you can get great pleasure from the beauties, which are called only 15 - 30 minutes from the city.
The first and closest place is a waterfall. Located from 12 km from the city in Popina Lkaya.
This is 11-meter waterfall surrounded by greens.
While in Sandanski, it is simply obligatory to visit the rupta - this is the place where I spent the last years of the life of Vanga. There is a small, but very pretty museum, Vanga's grave and the church - everything is connected with her name.
This place is included in the list of 100 tourist places in Bulgaria. People go constantly and carry flowers. who loved Vanga very much.
You can reach the city of Petrich, where Vang lived for many years, and now the house is carefully protected by the state. The entrance is 2 lev.
A pleasant surprise was for us the opening of the complex, which on the signs is noted as a fortress. In fact, it turned out to be the most beautiful memorial, in place, where the battle lost to Bulgarians lost 1000 years ago. The king Samuel is indeed a person who deserves attention and memory is immortalized in these places.
A small museum, a sculptural complex, dugouts, preserved just perfectly and the territory of a gorgeous park itself is a wonderful place to relax and children.
The fortress is open to visiting until 17 o'clock. The entrance ticket is worth 2 levs, and for pensioners and students 1 lion, that is, purely symbolic money.
