This is the country that surprised me the most. I This is the country that surprised me the most. I had no real idea what to expect. Which isn’t very common for me! Usually, I’ve researched SO much it feels like I’ve already visited a place before we even go! So sometimes it’s nice to just show up, go with the flow, and be surprised by it all.

I really didn’t expect to be this surprised though. This country has a bit of everything; hiking, mountains, ancient ruins, old churches, wine, stunning towns, great wild camps, and even great beach resorts (that we didn’t even get to explore!). I have no idea why nobody talks about it.

Now that it’s part of the EU, maybe this will change?

This is Bulgaria 🇧🇬

There are no words for the Buzludzha Monument. I There are no words for the Buzludzha Monument. 

Is it cool? âś…

Does it look like a UFO? âś…

Was it abandoned within a decade of being built? âś…

Is it still abandoned? âś…

Was it a colossal waste of money? âś…

Is it worth visiting? âś… âś…

I don’t think anything else we’ve seen screams Soviet architecture quite like this monument. Which is extra impressive when you consider that Bulgaria was never actually part of the Soviet Union!

Would you drive up the mountain to see it?
