Preslav Fortress
Heritage museum
👍👍 Loved it! Typical Balkan archeological site with no guides, no ropes barring you from touching, and really no rules at all. You're allowed to walk, climb and see as you wish.
The entry is 6 lev (3 usd) per person and covers all 3 sites and the museum.
There a small cafe with beer and soft drinks....

Археологически музей “Велики Преслав”
Archaeological museum
👍👍 Great place to learn more about Bulgarian history and culture. You can see examples of the early Bulgarian signs written in Bulgarian from 9-10 century AD.
I would recommend that visit the museum first then the ruins of then town. And do get a guide. Worth the visit!

Historical and archaeological reserve Shumen Fortress
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Shumen Fortress has an important historical significance! During the first Bulgarian Empire, it was part of the defense system for Prisla and Preslev, the capitals and religious centers of Madara. Then it worked like a little fort.
We walked here without worries because we were the only ones in the...

Park Kyoshkovete
Park
😐 Came here just few days ago (winter time) and from my photos - it’s not as great during summer but definitely a great place to have a walk especially in summer as it would be more bright and colourful coz of the trees and flowers.

Shumen Plateau Nature Park
Nature preserve
👍👍 Шуменско плато е огромен природен парк намиращ се над Шумен, в който се намират някой от най-красивите забележителности в региона. Достъпно е от всякаде с кола, има множество пешеходни и велосипедни маршрути с маркировка. Добре е да имате карта с маршрутите защото са много. Започвайки от парк кьошке...

“The eye of Osmar” rock formation
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Следва се пътеката за скалните манастири. Колата оставихме в края на село Осмар, преди черния път. Паркира се на улицата, защото уширението преди черния път се ползва за обръщало. Пътеката през по-голямата част от времето е с лека денивелация. Последните 15тина мин. е по-стръмна. Стига се първо до К...

Архитектурен комплекс Велики Преслав
Museum
😐 Едно от свещените места на България. Жалко, че както на много други места и тук се започва едно мазало със съвременни строителни материали. Има още много да се желае при поддръжката и представянето на Велики Преслав.

Shumen zoo
Zoo
👍👍 It is very nicely renovated, there is a large cage where you can enter the parrots and other birds. It is interesting for small children. They also let the little ones near the bunnies to pet them. Goats can be fed. The rear is still under repair. There is a playground in front of the entrance and a...
