Nature Park Golden Sands
Golden Sands Nature Park is the smallest Nature Park (13.2 sq.km) in Bulgaria. The
Park was declared as protected area for conservation and protection of valuable
habitats, flora, fauna and specific landscapes in 1943. The Park is part of the
European network Natura 2000 as a Special Area of Conservation named Zlatni
Pyasatsi.
The Nature Park is situated 17 km northeast from Varna. The area is parallel to the
coastal line, forms the west border of the resort Golden Sands (Zlatni Pyasatsi) and
reaches the Kranevo village in north. Park's average length is 9.2 km and average
width – 1.2 km. The highest point is Chiplak Tepe (269.3 m a.s.l.), and the average
altitude is 110 m. The idea for the establishment of a Park in thе area dates back to
1915, but it came into reality on 3 February 1943, when the Ministry of Agriculture
and State Property declared 2.4 sq.km of the State Forest “Hachuka” for a National
Park Zlatni pyassatsi (Golden Sands). The Park is the second declared Park in
Bulgaria, after Nature Park Vitosha. When in 1943 the Nature Park Zlatni pyasatsi
(Golden Sands) was declared, no one assumed that 13 years later in its seaside area
will be built one of the biggest Bulgarian sea resorts. The Golden Sands resort took
also the name of the Nature Park – Zlatni Pyasatsi.
Varna city
Varna is a port city and seaside resort on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast, close to the coastal resorts of Golden Sands, St. Constantine, and Albena.
It is famous for the "Gold of Varna" – the oldest processed gold in the world (dated between 4500 and 4000 BC). The Thracian jewelry was found in a necropolis near Varna and is exhibited in the Archaeological Museum, together with Greek, Roman, and Ottoman antiquities.
On the seashore, in front of the 19th-century Seaside Park, there is a promenade lined with bars.
Cape Kaliakra
Cape Kaliakra and the archaeological reserve located on its territory are located 12
km southeast of the town of Kavarna. It is an extended and narrow rocky peninsula,
about 2 km into the sea. This is one of the most attractive places for tourists on the
Black Sea coast because of the rich history, the preserved nature and the beautiful
panoramic views.
Many legends and stories are connected to Cape Kaliakra. The most famous of them
tells about 40 Bulgarian girls, who jumped in the sea from the rocks to save
themselves from the Ottoman Turks. The cape was named after one of the girls -
Kaliakra.
