The town of Balchik is situated at 42 km to the northeast Varna. Created

of the ancient Greek town Dionissopolis. Situated in a suitable bay between
beautiful white hills, the town is an attractive place from the deep antiquity
until nowadays. Here put up the Roman poet Ovidius, Saint Atanassios,
Saint Andrew The First-named. Ovidius called it The White Town! The unique
nature, the ancient history and today’s romance of the town of Balchik
are a constant source of inspiration to writers, poets and artists. Since
the ancient times Balchik is the town of people in love.

areas, the mud-cure Touzlata, the yacht port, the Palace of Queen Maria
and the Botanical garden, the museums, the Art gallery, the churches,
the amphitheatrically situated houses, the stone stairways and fountains,
all they turn Balchik into one of most visited resorts on Bulgarian Black
Sea coast.
The

combining Bulgarian, oriental and gothic elements. This corner of Bulgarian
land is generously granted with ancient trees, climbing bushes, fine flowers,
plenty of water, freshness and silence. There is a rich collection of
