Welcome to Part 13 of my Lost in Europe Series.

Plovdiv, Bulgaria is THE oldest city in Europe, even older than the likes of Rome and Athens. In this video, we'll begin at the train station and walk through the streets of this ancient city. I begin the walk through pretty rundown streets, and even explore a couple of abandoned buildings. Later in the video we finally find some of the absolute gems that Plovdiv has to offer, the Plovdiv Roman Stadium of Philippopolis and Plovdiv Roman Ancient Theatre of Philippopolis. I was also lucky enough to be in Plovdiv during their annual folk festival!
