A famous American traveler is shooting videos for Veliko Tarnovo

The 56-year-old traveler Forest Mallard has started shooting 19 videos that will promote Veliko Tarnovo around the world. The first five are already available and are dedicated to the Stambolov Bridge, the House with the monkey, the Monument “Assenevtsi”, Mother Bulgaria War Memorial and the Monument of Vasil Levski.

Forest Mallard will stay in Veliko Tarnovo for a month and will be immersed in the history of the city. Videos about a number of other historical landmarks in the old capital are to be shot. Tsarevets, the monument “Velchova Zavera”, the performance “Sound and Light”, the Archaeological Museum, the Patriarchate, the Sarafkin House and many others will be presented.

Forest first came to Veliko Tarnovo in 2016 and immediately fell in love with the city. The landscape, the architecture, the monuments, the medieval ruins and the vast history were unexpected and fascinating. It seems that the whole tourist marketing for Bulgaria directed him to Plovdiv and Sofia, but as a person who loves history, Forest was struck by the fortresses of Veliko Tarnovo and Kardzhali and the natural wonders of Belogradchik.

A new playground for mountain biking and other sports activities will be made in Veliko Tarnovo

In the summer of last year, the Municipality announced that a new project for a park space with areas for sports activities, temporary attractions, parking and a place for free walking of pets has been prepared for the territory of the circus site. Due to the lack of funding under European programs, the mayor’s office has launched a procedure for the gradual construction of the site with its own funds. The first stage includes the construction of an asphalt pump-track, and the track must be designed to offer fun and at the same time safe sports activities for people of all ages and with different skill levels.
