Top Castles in Veliko Tarnovo

Make sure to wear comfortable shoes! The castle grounds are pretty big and there’s a lot of walking on uneven surfaces, so leave the fancy footwear at home.

I suggest exploring the nearby town after visiting the castle. There are charming restaurants and shops, and you can find some great souvenirs without breaking the bank.

Don’t forget your camera or phone for pictures! The views of Veliko Tarnovo from the castle are breathtaking; you’ll want to capture the moment.

I recommend visiting in the late afternoon around 4 PM. The lighting is perfect for photos, and it’s less crowded—plus, the sunset views are stunning!
