Once you've been to Veliko Turnovo, your heart is
forever captured by its magical beauty. It is a magic called love.
Veliko Turnovo, one of the most ancient Bulgarian towns, is situated
amphitheatrically on 4 hills - Tsarevets, Trapezitsa, Momina Krepost
and Sveta Gora, Tsarevets was the capital of the Second Bulgarian
Kingdom in the 12th century AD. Ancient travellers wrote about the
town of Turnovo as "the second after Constantinople". The fateful
events from the 13 centuries old Bulgarian State are related to this
town, such as the Second Bulgarian Kingdom's apogee in the 12th and
13th centuries AD and the adoption of the First Bulgarian
Constitution in 1874.
