Trapezitsa Fortress

Trapezitsa Fortress is a medieval defensive complex from the Second Bulgarian Empire, hidden on the cliffs above the Yantra River. Discover 21 excavated churches decorated with frescoes and mosaics, walk along the defensive walls along the precipice, and climb the two towers.

It is the perfect place for history and photography enthusiasts - it offers the best panorama of the Carevec Fortress, unavailable from any other point. A small museum exhibition and picturesque alleys make it an authentic alternative to crowded attractions.
