baba vida fortress印象

This for is in an excellent state of repair. It overlooks the Danube. There is a small church in there along with some small shops and other displays.

The ruins of tis fortress are quite impressive. The climb on the cobblestones can be tricky, especially after a rain but it is worth it. The top level provides panoramic views of the area. It is a must see if you are in the town of Vidin; the rest of the town is rather depressing and in great need of a facelift.

Self-guided tour but it was very interesting. Right along the Danube. We sat on the front lawn and watched people swimming in the Danube! The grounds surrounding the fortress were really nice.

We noticed that two of the towers were accessible for visiting. There is a prison in the fortress, in which torture devices can be seen. The figures of an executioner and a prisoner are not attractive. Cannons and gallows are exposed on one of the terraces. Baba Vida is among the most preserved medieval fortification constructions in Bulgaria, which is why it is not accidentally often chosen as a set for shooting movies. It has unbelievable views of the Danube River so be sure you make the effort to walk to the top.

The fort, on the banks of the Danube, is quite spectacular and well worth a visit. However the town of Vidin is also worth a few days of exploring. The market is excellent, the riverside gardens leading up to the fort are also a great place to relax and chill and the various sculptures are interesting too. The old ruined synagogue is also worth seeing and the main church, opposite the new shopping mall is really stunning. The people are friendly and the restaurants are excellent value for money and of the highest quality. The town centre is mostly pedestrianised and the cafes are a great place to sit and watch the world go by. The Saturday market (near the football stadium) is also interesting where you can buy everything from car spares to computers, live chickens to firewood. Another plus is the absence of tourists!!

We got there too late to go inside the fortress but we could wander at will upon the top of the walls and around the mote. There's great access to the river and views up and down the Dunav. I hope I can go back and go within on another journey!

Get a brochure from the Vidin Tourist Office which shows the attractions in Vidin including the Castle which is on English. Historic attraction but do not allow children to explore on their own as no safety railings and holes between each level which they could fall down.

The fortress is worth a visit if you are in the area, probably not worth a long drive to see it. The walls are massive and well preserved. There are a few artists displaying in the courtyard which is worth a look.We saw a cute play outlining the history of the area.

- Location: On the bank of the Danube. - Access: It’s not easy to find the fort because of the signage and directions were non-existent. I fell upon it more by luck than judgement.- View: The top level provides panoramic views of the area and new cable-stayed Calafat bridge. I sat on the front lawn and watched few men swimming in the Danube.- Fortress condition: The walls are massive and well preserved.- Duration of visit: An hour.

very good tourist attraction, symbol of the town of Vidin, but there are some details which needs to improve - museum inside needs to be open as well as a narrator during the trip inside the fortress.
