Did you know? Balchik

Balchik's Botanical Garden, established in 1957, houses over 3,000 plant species from five continents on a dramatic clifftop overlooking the Black Sea.

The town was ruled by Romania from 1913 to 1940, a period that left behind the striking Palace of Queen Marie, now a museum and cultural landmark.

Balchik is Bulgaria's northernmost seaside resort, sitting just 40 km south of the Romanian border on the Black Sea coast.

The town's name likely derives from the Turkish word 'balchık,' meaning mud, referring to the clay cliffs that define its coastline.

Balchik's old town features narrow stone-paved streets and a working fishing harbour that still supplies fresh seafood to local restaurants daily.
