Burgas is a coastal city in southeast Bulgaria. Soak up the sun at the picturesque Lake Atanasovsko, a lagoon popular for its pink hue created by saline waters. Take a dip in the lake known to have healing properties and wash off the mud at the Black sea located a few hundred meters away. Spot herons, egrets, spoonbills, glossy ibises among other rich birdlife at Poda, a wetland reserve home to over 200 bird species. Discover 2000 years of history at the Aquae Calidae ruins, a complex of well-preserved ruins featuring Roman walls, baths, and an opulent 16th-century bathroom. Learn about Bulgarian cultural traditions at the Ethnographic museum housed in a stately home featuring displays of local costumes among others.
