The city of Varna is about thousand years old. Due to its favourable geographic location, the place was first inhabited by an ancient Thracian tribe, Corbisi, which had a small fishermen settlement there. In the 6th century BC a Greek polis, named Odessos, emerged there. The town became a fishing and farming colony, which soon turned into a commercial hub. The town fell under the siege of Alexander of Macedonia's troops in the 4th century BC, but because they failed to capture it, the town was given autonomy within the limits of his Empire. Up to the 1st century BC it was an independent polis, which minted its own coins with the image of its god. Later on, conquered by Mark Lukulus' legions, it became a Roman centre though gradually it lost supremacy in the region. In the 9th century it was already called Varna. The town was included in the territory of Bulgaria in the beginning of the 13lh century during the reign of King Kaloyan. Despite its strong defence system, the town was conquered by the Turks in 1391 which gradually transformed it into an oriental city with konaks (town halls), Turkish baths and mosques. In 1878 Varna was finally liberated from Ottoman rule and became the most important Bulgarian seaport. Modern Varna is an amalgam of different roles – a shipyard and port of commercial freighters and the Bulgarian Navy, and a Riviera town visited by millions of tourist of every nationality. It’s a cosmopolitan place – evident in small things like street names in two alphabets – and lavishly celebrated during the ‘Varna Summer’, and a nice one to stroll through. Baroque, turn-of-the last century and contemporary architecture are pleasantly blended with shady promenades and a handsome seaside garden; and there are several interesting museums. If none of this grabs you, most of the other smashing coastal resorts can be reached from Varna by bus or boat.
