The newest entrant into the European Union was Bulgaria and when the nation finally became a fully subscribed part of the EU it suddenly became a serious contender for a great deal of European based travel and tourism interest. But what is it about Bulgaria that makes it appealing? What does it have that makes it worth a visit?

Well, the best thing about Bulgaria is that if you prefer a summer holiday of sun, sea, sand and all things associated with relaxation and getting away from it all, Bulgaria has stunning resorts, excellent hotels and even villas and apartments that you can live in in Bulgaria for the duration of your holiday. But if you prefer an action and adventure packed winter holiday of skiing and snowboarding, après ski and perhaps even a toboggan ride, Bulgaria has some fabulous ski resorts too!

For summer sunshine seekers the Black Sea coast is the place to head. The most popular resort of all is called Sunny Beach and it is home to a stunning and massive stretch of sand and all around the town there are other, equally magnificent beaches to enjoy. This area of Bulgaria is fun for all the family, there are amenities and facilities, events and entertainment for everyone to enjoy, join in with and have fun from.

You can stay in a hotel room or better still, consider staying in an apartment or a villa with a pool in Bulgaria on the coastline and enjoy a long hot summer season.

For winter sports enthusiasts, the Pirin Mountains is the place to head. Resorts such as Bansko and Borovets are paradise for those who love skiing or snowboarding. The snow is fabulous, the range of facilities is excellent, the runs offer something for everyone no matter what your age and ability, and what's more, the après ski is excellent as well with lots of bars, restaurants, clubs and even shopping to be enjoyed.

Finally, if you are fed up of the summer sunshine or the winter fun and frolics, consider having a two centre holiday and spend a few days in the capital of the country, Sofia. This is one of the most fascinating and ancient capital cities in Europe and it is backed with history and culture and what's more, it's a vibrant and happening city where there is plenty going on and lots to enjoy.
