Just for 6 Bulgarian levs per adult an enjoyable afternoon can be had at Tsarevets Fortress and park in Veliko Tarnovo Bulgaria.This fortified location dating back from Medieval times is a spectacular place to visit. Great time to walk and photograph this spectacular location is on a dry, Sunny day in Winter, when there are virtually no tourists around!
So I did just that as you can see below, it paid results! The walk culminated in arriving home in General Gurko Street, which I will photograph real soon!

So if you support UKIP, ignore what Nigel Farage was saying and come and see for yourself why you should emigrate here, not the other way round !
