The Old Town by the Sea

Sozopol is different.

More bohemian. More casual. More seaside.

Old wooden houses, fig trees, narrow streets and small restaurants alternate with sea views.

But behind this atmosphere lies an ancient city.

Today's Sozopol is the successor to ancient Apollonia, and archaeological finds in the area continue to tell the story of the place.

How to experience it

Get up early and walk around the Old Town before the streets fill up.

Go to the beach.

In the afternoon, return among the old houses.

And in the evening, find a table with a sea view.

There is no need for a complicated program here.
