About this activity
Explore Zheravna, a historically rich Bulgarian village shaped by natural springs and ancient settlement, on a intimate 4-hour walking tour. Discover Roman-era Thracian artifacts, preserved heritage homes, local galleries, and a 2,000-year narrative of continuous inhabitation.
People used to live in this scenic place since way back in time. The area is rich with cool, crystal clear water springs, which is a fundamental settling factor.
The local history museum exhibits treasures such as coins dating back to II and III century AD, when the first local inhabitants, the Thracians, were living here under the Roman government.
One can also see a lot of preserved Thracian burial pottery and jewellery discovered through random excavation works. The ruins of a fortress found on a nearby hill called "Vida" also date back to the Roman era.
Highlights:
Take a guided walking tour of Zheravna from Sliven.
Learn about the rich history and lifestyle of the region.
Visit historic homes, art galleries, and a local church.
This small-group tour is capped at 15 travellers.
