PMR062K-11 Bulgaria: Veliko Tarnovo, the first capital of Bulgaria from 1187. The site was previously used by the Thracians and then the Romans before the Bulgarians came, and is virtually surrounded by a loop of the River Yantra. Here, 13/14th century frescoes depicting the Patriarchs in the Church of Saints Peter and Paul.
