The main attractions of Nessebar

Places to visit if you come to Nessebar for the first time.

Back in 1956 the resort was declared a museum city, which means that to find attractions in Nessebar will be an easy task. Of course, their search should lead you first of all to the Old Town. Just there you can admire the perfectly preserved remains of (and sometimes completely intact) churches, fortresses and buildings. And they represent a variety of historical periods - from antiquity to the Middle Ages.

Pantocratic Church in Nessebar

Some people call Nessebar the City of 40 Temples. And that's because on the map of its attractions you can easily notice four dozen ancient sanctuaries, clustered on a small piece of island land. The most ancient of them, the Metropolitan Church, was built here in the 5th century. The Church of St. Stephen, which appeared four centuries later, is famous for its impressive collection of frescoes as well as religious items dating back to the 16th century. Looking at photos of local attractions, you can be convinced that one of the main decorations of this place is undoubtedly the Church of Christ Pantocrator.

But besides the churches in this place there is also a lot to admire. For example, in high season, you can see groups of tourists crowded together to take photos of one of the city's popular landmarks. For example, travelers recognize the face of Nessebar by the old windmill - it is a kind of symbol of the resort, as the Eiffel Tower for Paris or Big Ben for London. The local Turkish bath is also famous.
