Thracian Tumulus

Pomorie, Bulgaria

Known as the “hollow mound”, the Thracian Tumulus in Pomorie is an intriguing burial place dating back to the 2nd and 3rd century. Admire the Thracian and Roman architecture as you follow the corridor into the main chamber, where light and darkness meet – a unique cultural highlight in Pomorie.

    Incredibly ancient heritage and it has to be visited by everyone.

    For the price, we got almost nothing. The texts describing the tomb were badly translated and hard to even understand. The tomb itself is entirely reconstructed, almost nothing ancient remaining visible. They even added cheap lights and bad music, which makes the whole expwrience even worse. Nothing to be seen, really, quite pointless.

    Old magical place which is worth to visit. Calm and cool in a hot summer day.

    VERY impressive but I wish they would attend to the access road, parking, weeds and general surroundings to do justice to such a wonderful landmark.

    It's quiet and somehow ignored historical place simply passed by by most of tourists travelling in this area. However this, in my opinion, is a must visit place for intelligent people interested in history. Entrance is 3 leva (less than 2$). If you happen to be near this place (it's just 100 meters from the Pontica coastal highway) don't hesitate taking a brief break and visit that great place

    Jacques Cartier Manor House

    The Jacques Cartier Manor House is the only existing property wich belonged to Cartier, the discoverer of Canada, in 1534. It’s a rare example of a great 16th century explorer’s home. Jacques Cartier opened up the North American continent to the French via the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. The manor house has been restored and furnished to illustrate both the everyday life and the travels of its famous owner. From the kitchen with its red clay floor, to the explorer’s bedroom, this museum has lost none of its period charm.
