This old... okay, ancient town is neat to wander around. The narrow cobblestone streets lead to a plethora of churches that represent various architectural styles of Byzantine, Bulgarian and Ottoman influence. The locals seemed to be rather friendly and would usually offer a smile or wave.
10 years ago, this place was charming, exciting and Bulgarians were pride that it's part of the UNESCO herritage. Now... oh well, not anymore part of UNESCO... just hungry for the tourists money people.
I love Nessebar. I was before 3 years ago againt and i love this city. It was a pleasent stay. Exact Old Nessebar is my lovely place.
Nessebar is an old amazing town in Bulgaria, that belongs to the UNESCO list and definitely to the MUST places in here. Even in winter it makes impression (+no turists, streets are so quite and even more special). It cannot be described, it has to be seen...
This is one of the best places to visit in Bulgaria!This little town is full of history and you can see old architectural monuments preserved from ancient times!
The Old Town has Old Churches, Buildings and narrow streets that are mainly for walking.St Stephen Church built in the 10th Century has gorgeous murals painted in the 16th Century is a prime example of the Churches that remain in Nessebar.St. John Aliturghetos (Unsantified) Church is unfinished because one of the Workers died during Construction. Construciton is of Stone and Brick with unique patterns and built in 14th Century.The architecture in Old Nessebar incorporates may different designs with the brick and stone. It is amazing the construction still exists..We visited Nessebar as part of an excursion from our cruise ship
This is a fascinating area to walk around. The old buildings are well preserved and there is an air of old time feel to it. However, there is an over abundance of 'shops' and in some cases eateries. Possibly because we were there in off season the place was not crowed and the downside was being constantly pestered to enter or buy something from vendors.
Small and nice town just next to one of Bulgaria's biggest beach resorts. Since we visited in September it was not too crowded and it was nice to walk around, seing the nice buildings and streets.
Very nice little town , well preserved and some parts of the city are very interesting ...But ... visit it out of season , otherwise you will have a lot of tourists and a lot of shops everywhere ... also during the season , a lot of people who will try to make you enter their restaurant ...
We arrived in Old Nessebar on December 2 and was a rainy day, which made me and my wife be the only tourists :). Apart from a couple of restaurants, a few shops and few locals, we were alone on the streets of this beautiful town, with a centuries-old arhitecture. Besides the arhitecture of the old houses, it is clear that the main objective is the gorgeous arhitecure of small churches and ruins of ancient fortress. However, given that we are on the Black Sea coast, summer would be ideal season to visit, even if then are thousands of tourists and the town are crowded!
