There was a nice show in central Sofia on New Year’s eve on the occasion of Bulgaria’s accession to the European Union. Some people captured the show on television and posted in on the internet. It’s now available here in BlueBulgaria.com’s movie section. Enjoy!

The National Geographic magazine’s December 2006 edition has a feature on Thracian Gold titled “Bulgaria’s Gold Rush, Thracian gold” in wish the author highlights some of the many Thracian treasures found in Bulgaria and also focuses on the somewhat controversial practices used by archaeologists who compete with illegal excavations. This provides good background context to our features on Perperikon and Stara Zagora.
