Valia sent me this postcard showing the Devil's Bridge over the Arda River in the Rhodope Mountains. The legend tells of the Devil's footprint still being visible in one of the stones, so it's worth being careful if you visit! Valia loves travelling, meeting new people, trying new food and hearing interesting stories.

Thanks so much for the postcard.

Donka sent me this special Postcrossing Bulgaria postcard showing Veliko Tarnova, the old capital city. It looks like a very impressive fortress on the top of the hill. She studied at Tarnova, so I would imagine this place was often visited.

Thanks for the postcard.

According to Irina, Bulgaria is famous for both winter and summer tourism. In the summer the sea is very warm, and in the winter there is lots of snow on the mountains. It looks like an amazing place!

Thanks for the postcard.

Irina sent me this multiview card of Bulgaria, showing the variety of habitats and wildlife to be found in the country. It looks amazing, and I definitely want to visit now! Interesting to see an Avocet - we get these on the coast in the UK.

Thanks so much for the postcard!
