The Romanian Queen Castle in Balchik - Музеи & Забележителности в Варна - България

Описание: Enjoy that romantic place, have a walk in the Garden, test the best bulgarian wines in the Queen's winery, have a sit in her stone throne, 'get lost' in the labyrinth, walk 'The Bridge of the sighs' and then wish something - it will become true!

This is a remarkable walking tour around Balchik, the Palace of the Romanian Queen Maria and the Botanical garden. This is something different and you will sure spend nice and relaxing time with your guide Patrick and enjoy all his personal attention!

The harbour town of Balchik is located 31 km away from Varna. It was founded in the V century BC. The name of the town comes from the ancient Greek word for ‘springs' due to the numerous healing carvern waters that spring in the area.

The town is famous for the largest and richest botanical garden on the Balkans and the palace of the Romanian queen Maria (1924). The palace complex consists of a central palace with a high tower, many buildings in a style typical for that time, a park with terraces, lanes and paths, stone alcoves with marvellous columns and sea view.
