Probably, there is no such strong friendly relationship with any Europe<\/a>an country as Russia has with Bulgaria<\/a>. Freed from the oppression of the Ottomans, the Bulgarians idolized their Russian saviors for centuries. After the collapse of the socialist<\/a> camp, the political connection has weakened, but sunny Bulgaria is still a tempting resort area for many Russians. It is impossible not to fall in love with its natural beauty and diverse landscape, as well as with the wonderful people who live in it. Bulgaria is famous for<\/a> its ski and spa resorts.<\/p>\n

sunny Beach<\/h2>\n

It is located<\/a> by a picturesque bay, protected from the north by the Stara Planina mountain range, which ensures the Mediterranean mildness of the local climate. Extraordinarily beautiful views<\/a> of the mountains, the azure sea<\/a>, the dunes of golden quartz sand create an irresistible picture. For the cleanliness of the environment, Sunny Sands is marked with the Blue Flag.<\/p>\n

The local flora surprise<\/a>s with its rich diversity and beauty; there are no alternations of tides in the sea<\/a>. More than a hundred hotels<\/a> of varying degrees of comfort welcome guests with friendly smiles of the staff. All establishments are adapted for families<\/a>. A gentle descent into the water, a shallow sea off the coast, a sandy bottom are the best suited for small children<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the reviews of tour<\/a>ists are not filled with delight and admiration. First of all, there are many complaints about high prices<\/a>. Almost everywhere there are no second-hand toilets, it is expensive to rent sunbeds and umbrellas. The beach strip is divided into paid and non-paid area<\/a>s, and very little space is allocated to the free zone. Those who cannot afford to pay 1 lev per sun lounger every day are forced to sunbathe close to each other. Reviews<\/a> in 2018 are more positive – Bulgaria<\/a>ns are eager to correct the shortcomings in order to improve the service and return to their former glory.<\/p>\n
