Highlights
Bulgaria has been known for centuries with its rose oil, which is the best in the world. In recent years, another miracle has happened - she overtook France - the world leader in lavender production. From 2012 Bulgaria is officially number 1 in the world for the production of lavender oil. Bulgaria and France together produce about one-third of the world's lavender oil. Bulgarian lavender oil is used in French perfumery. You have a unique opportunity to see it all with your own eyes!

About Plovdiv
Plovdiv, in southern Bulgaria, is a city of hills, Roman ruins and a Revival-era old town, long settled on the plain of the Maritsa River.
Plovdiv rises around several rocky hills above the Maritsa plain, and people have lived here since prehistory. The Roman theatre of Philippopolis, dug out of a hillside and still used for concerts, and the remains of the Roman stadium under the main pedestrian street are the best-known relics. Above them the cobbled old town is lined with nineteenth-century merchants' houses with colourful, overhanging upper storeys.
Top-ranked sights in Plovdiv: Plovdiv Old Town (Stari Grad), Plovdiv Roman Theater (Ancient Theater of Philippopolis), Bachkovo Monastery.
