        Orasul isi pastreaza aerul medieval dar multe cladiri stau sa se darame. Strazi curate, oameni amabili, magazine frumoase si pravalii interesante. Peste tot sunt arborate drapelul national si cel al orasului.

        Un ora? care trebuie vizitat. turi?tii iubitori de istorie pot vizita cetatea-capitala a imperiului romano-bulgar (imperiul asanid), cu tot ce implica aceasta. Se poate vizita Muzeul de arta, situat in fostul sediu al Mili?iei, pe timpul perioadei socialiste. De asemenea, iubitorii de suveniruri au la dispozi?ie o strada intreaga cu magazine specializate (Samovodska).

        In august, orasul nu este foarte aglomerat, ceea ce a fost un plus. Sunt multe terase si restaurante deschise, obiectuivele turistice sunt ingrijite si semnalizate. Noua ne-a placut.

        Punctul principal l-a constituit vizitarea ceta?ii. 6 leva intrarea de persoana ni s-a parut un pre? acceptabil, mai ales la sfar?it dupa toate cate vazusem. Vizitarea dureaza cam 2 ore, iar pe parcurs ai ocazia sa faci si mi?care, sa vezi ora?ul de sus, din diferite perspective, sa intalne?ti zidurile ce alcatuiesc vechi incaperi, locuri cu rezonan?a istorica, dar si mici teatre de papu?i ambulante, terase pentru suc sau cafea in drumul catre varful ceta?ii, carari ce se cer explorate... in varf troneaza o biserica in care, cand intri afli racoarea pe care o sim?i ca pe o binecuvantare, dupa efortul depus intr-o zi si a?a caniculara. am comparat cetatea cu Sighi?oara noastra, sau cu cetatea de scaun de la Suceava.

        Orasul dragut, cu foarte multe magazine pline de fake- uri,. Restaurantele deosebit de frumoase si preturile relativ mici.

        Ceace am vazut in oras si in imprejurimi, mi-a placut si a corespuns asteptarilor mele. Ce nu mi-a placut este curatenia stazilor si a parcurilor. Nepasarea pune o amprenta urata.
