Situated at an altitude of 1 000m, on the foothills of the Sredna Mountains (Sredna Gora), the small city of Koprivstica rises in tiers up the slopes framing the River Topolnica. Considered to be one of the loveliest towns in Bulgaria, it owes its charm to its wooded surroundings and to its colourful houses of undeniable architectural interest. You will undoubtedly, like so many artists and writers before you, be fascinated by the beauty and gentle way of life of this peaceful museum-town.
