The picturesque town of Kazanlak
Kazanlak is situated in the famous Valley of Roses, in the skirts of the Balkan mountain. The settlement has been inhabited since deep antiquity and was an important centre of the Thracian culture in the past. You will be captivated by the beautiful nature of the region which is a combination of picturesque mountain and valley landscape. The region of Kazanluk is most popular with its long traditions in rose-oil production which have been passed through many generations. A historical monument of international importance is the Thracian tomb of Kazanlak, situated in a mount, not far from the town. The region of Kazanluk offers good opportunities for hiking and biking tourism as there are well-maintained chalets in this part of the Balkan mountain and marked tourist routes.The Rose Festival in Kazanluk
Annually, in early June, the Rose Festival takes place in Kazanlak. The event has attracted lots of visitors from Bulgaria and abroad for more than one hundred years. The festival is dedicated to the rose, known in Bulgaria as the “Queen of flowers” and a symbol of youth and beauty. Apart from the rich musical programme with folk songs, dances and a beauty contest, the festival includes ritual rose-picking in the fragrant rose fields and rose-distillation afterwards. All visitors are invited to take part in these rituals and to feel the spirit of this unusual corner of Bulgaria. If you are attracted by the idea to participate in the Rose festival, you can always book a tour to the Valley of Roses on our site and we will arrange it specially for you!Accommodation and hotels in Kazanlak
The Palas complex and the Zornitsa hotel are the options we recommend for your accommodation in Kazanluk. They are three-star hotels which offer cozy, convenient rooms with home-like atmosphere. Besides, you can find accommodation in almost every house in the region of Kazanlak where you will be welcomed with warmth and hospitality by the local people.on the map of
