If you are visiting Bulgaria and you are traveling to Plovdiv for a few days, you should dedicate a day for a trip towards the Rhodope Mountains, in order to see some of the best attractions around Plovdiv.
We visited Plovdiv during a family trip for Easter 2019 and we had a wonderful time discovering the city's vibrant atmosphere, even on Easter Sunday, when we expected everything to be closed and the town to be empty and quiet.
