Bulgaria?
Where is it?
What does it look like?
Bulgarians are very pleased to tell you.
On the map, our Free tours of Sofia told us that Bulgaria is supposed to look like a lion.
Map of Europe showing Bulgaria in dark green, looking like a lion with its nose sniffing the black sea, and its tail in the air.
So we can now recognize Bulgaria easily on a map of Europe. That is a magic map. Identify the lion of Bulgaria, and you can spot Romania to the north. Greece is South West. Turkey is South East.
You can also understand why there are many Israelis visiting Bulgaria. Israel is surrounded by countries which Israelis cannot visit. In Europe, their nearest neighbour is Turkey, but beyond that the next is Bulgaria. A couple of letters in the Cyrillic alphabet are easy for them, too, as well as for speakers of Greek and Russian.

The Bulgarian flag is easy to recognise and remember. White for purity, green for the countryside, red for the history of blood shed to win independence.
