Ancient City of Nessebar of Bulgaria

Nessebar is situated on a rocky peninsula on the Black Sea, the more than 3,000-year-old site of Nessebar was originally a Thracian settlement (Menebria). It is a one of the most prominent tourist destinations and seaports on the Black Sea, in what has become a popular area with several large resorts-the largest, Sunny Beach, is situated immediately to the north of Nesebar.

The ancient part of the town is situated on a peninsula (previously an island) connected to the mainland by a narrow man-made isthmus, and it bears evidence of occupation by a variety of different civilisations over the course of its existence.

At the beginning of the 6th century BC, the city became a Greek colony. The city’s remains, which date mostly from the Hellenistic period, include the acropolis, a temple of Apollo, an agora and a wall from the Thracian fortifications.

Did you know? That in September 2005, only 10,194 have been claimed as the total number of population of Nessebar.

UNESCO listed Nessebar as world heritage site in 1983.
