- MissHK2009Hong Kong, China3,914 contributionsI had a one-day excursion on my own from Sophia by taking the coach from Central Bus Station (on metro line 2) at 8:10am then return ticket at 4:10pm. Each way exactly 2 hrs without traffic jam on my day.
So I had plenty of time to explore Plovdiv especially this theatre. It's spectacular and grand, I could sit for an hour there. And of course, many pictures. Other scenic spots in Plovdiv are just so so to me. I found not that easy to reach this theatre, need some uphill walks on uneven cobblestone path and the sign is not too obvious to me.
Better buy the bus tickets in advance as the way back to Sophia could be full. Don't mix up the two bus stations in Plovdiv as the other one is only "Serdika" bus station. You have to go to the "Central" bus station to go back to Sophia.Written February 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A long hike only to peek through the fence. It is, however, breathtaking.Written September 10, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Hisarya is the only town in Bulgaria with a complete Roman city wall. It boasts many other Roman remains mainly because it was it was and still is a major mineral water spa location. Nothing too luxurious on offer but many perfectly comfortable places to spend a few nights. Dining can be hit and miss.Written April 23, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There are some good Roman mosaics and a stunning collection of glass items from 200 BC until 200 ad. Trakart Gallery is the correct name for searching for it's location. Our tour guide from Bulgaria had never been there and he was most impressed as well.Written September 12, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
