Philip Ward

Bulgaria: A Travel Guide takes tourists through a country rapidly blossoming into a travel hot spot. A compelling and unique supplement to the traditional travel guide, Ward's book is a delightful account of his experiences in Bulgaria, offering intriguing insight into the country's history and culture. Bulgaria is traditionally famed for its sunny beaches, the Black Sea's golden sands, and skiing in picturesque mountain resorts. Encouraging traveler creativity, this book guides the reader through lesser-known sites such as the beautiful "museum towns." When staying at the "museum town" of Melnik, for example, one should not shy away from striking up conversation with locals at Chinarite, the popular neighborhood restaurant. Ward also suggests that while visiting the renowned "Sunny Beach," tourists visit the scenic Nesebur Peninsula. Whether people watching in Lenin Square, which Ward describes as "teeming with everyday Bulgarian life," or touring the National History Museum in Sofia, the country's capital, travelers are sure to encounter people and places unknown to the average visitor.
