Tsarevets Fortress - Veliko Tarnovo Bulgaria
Hello friends, today I want to show you the beautiful and ancient architecture of the Tsarevets fortress in Veliko Tarnovo Bulgaria. Whatever we say about the town of Veliko Tarnovo will be small. Let's start with the fact that Tsarevets is a fortress located on a hill in medieval Tarnovgrad . The fortress is the most important part of the second Bulgarian kingdom. During the Middle Ages many residential buildings were located here. The hill of the same name was inhabited long before it became a fortress and capital of the second Bulgarian kingdom. Information dates back to 4000 thousand years ago Naturally, the first settlers were the ancient Thracians. The defensive wall of the fortress is really impressive with a thickness of almost 4 meters and a height of 10 meters, it is preserved to this day. Tsarevets Fortress is synonymous with grandeur and beauty.
Здравейте приятели,днес искам да ви покажа красивата и древна архитектура на крепостта Царевец във град Велико Търново България.Каквото и да кажем за град Велико Търново ще е малко.Да започнем със това че Царевец е крепост намираща се на върха на хълм в средновековният Търновград. Крепостта е най главната и важна част по времето на второто българско царство.През средновековието тук са били разположени множество жилищни сгради.Едноимения хълм се е населявал много преди да се превърне в крепост и столица на второто българско царство.Сведенията датират от преди 4000 хиляди години .Естествено първите заселници са били древните траки.Отбранителната стена на крепоста е найстина внушителна с дебелина до почти 4 метра и височина до 10 метра тя е запазена и до днес.Крепоста Царевец е синоним на величие и красота

I had never visited the fortress before and to put it mildly I was amazed by its size and grandeur. The whole fortress, from the defensive walls to the administrative and residential buildings inside are built of stone. There is no denying that in the past people knew how to build and materials to be done.Proof of this is this ancient fortress survived the time and wars.The fortress is over 850 years old.
Не бях посещавал крепостта до сега и меко казано останах поразен от размерите и величието и.Цялата крепост,от отбранителните стени до административните и жилищни сгради вътре са построени от камък.Няма как да отречем че в миналото хората са знаели как да строят и със какви матеряли да бъде направено.Доказателство за това е тази древна крепост остояла на времето и войните.Крепостта е на над 850 години.
Once more than eight centuries ago, the entrances to the fortress were three in number. At a later stage, only one entrance was left due to the difficulty of conquest.
The Yantra River, which flows around the Tsarevets Fortress, is also a natural defensive line of the fortress.

Някога преди повече от осем века входовете на крепостта са били три на брой.В по късен етап е оставен само един единствен вход заради по трудното и превземане.Естествена отбранителна линия на крепостта се явява и река Янтра която тече около крепостта Царевец.
Поглед от крепостта към града.
We can not miss one of the most important and distinctive buildings in the ancient fortress, namely the Patriarchal Cathedral "Holy Ascension". Located on the highest hill of the fortress, it was the center of the Bulgarian patriarchs.
The cathedral can be seen from every point of the city and its spectacular size symbolizes the strength and wealth of the Bulgarian state at that time.
Няма как да пропуснем и една от най важните и отличаващи се постройки във древната крепост,а именно Патриаршеската катедрала "Св. Възнесение Господне".Разположена на най високият хълм от крепостта тя е била център на българските патриарси.
Катедралата се вижда от всяка точка на града и грандиозните и размери символизират силата и богатството на Българската държава по онова време.
The Patriarchal Church was reconstructed in 1980. It impresses with its size and architectural achievements.
Патриаршеската църква е реконструирана през 1980 година.Тя впечатлява с размерите и архитектурните си постижения.
The frescoes on the ceilings and walls of the church describe important and key moments and events in Bulgarian history.
Стенописите по таваните и стените на църквата описват важни и ключови моменти и събития от българската история.
The frescoes are a true work of art. The interior of the church has been cleaned of lamps, candles and altars. Here the emphasis is mainly on hand-painted frescoes. It is as if I am in a historical gallery.
Стенописите са истинско произведение на изкуството.Вътрешността на църквата е изчистена от към светилници,свещи и олтари.Тук акцента е фокусиран главно към ръчно изрисуваните стенописи.Сякаш се намирам в историческа галерия.
Defensive towers have been erected throughout the fortress. Some of the towers have been restored, while others have been preserved in their original form.
The very visit here makes us go back to the times of kings and battles.
It makes us proud to be Bulgarians.
Навсякъде из крепостта има издигнати отбранителни кули.Някои от кулите са реставрирани,а други са запазени в автентичен вид.Самото посещение тук ни кара да се пренесем във времена на царе и битки.Кара ни да се гордеем че сме българи.
During its time, this fortress was the largest and strategically located. More than 400 buildings of various types were found inside.
Starting with residential buildings, churches, old houses and of course the royal palace, which was impressive in size. Although it was a separate complex surrounded by battle and defense towers, the palace was destroyed when the fortress fell under Ottoman rule. Roads around the fortress are quite wide from 3 to 4 meters wide. They are built in this way in order to quickly move the cavalry and artillery units if necessary.
За времето си тази крепост е била най голямата и стратегически разположена.Вътре са намерени над 400 сгради от различен тип.Като започнем с жилищни сгради,църкви,староприемници и разбира се царският дворец, който е бил с внушителни размери.Въпреки че е бил самостоятелен комплекс обграден от бойни и отбранителни кули, дворецът е разрушен при падането на крепостта под османска власт.Пътищата из крепостта са доста широки от 3 до 4 метра широчина.Изградени са по този начин с цел бързото предвижване на конницата и артилерийски отряди при нужда.
There are many tunnels under the fortress, to which we were not allowed. It was in these tunnels that the Romans hid their treasures when they fell.
There is much more to be said about this place. Each building here has a history and its own secrets. I told you a small part of the life of the fortress. It is inhabited not only by Bulgarians but also by Byzantines and Ottomans.
I hope you found it interesting, stay healthy until next time.
Под крепостта има множество тунели,до които не бяхме допуснати.Именно в тези тунели римляните са крили своите съкровища при падението си.
Има още много какво да се каже за това място.Всяка сграда тук има история и свои тайни.Разказах ви една малка част от живота на крепостта.Тя е обитавана не само от българи,а и от византийци и османци.
Надявам се да ви е било интересно,бъдете здрави и до следващия път.

The city is really very beautiful. I didn't have much time to go around it, but from what I saw I was impressed. I will visit again.
This site is spectacular and your photos are amazing. I love the stone cladding. You are absolutely right, the people of old knew how to build.
And I think the city is amazing. Thanks for the comment and rating.😀
Ееее много хубав град. Ходил съм там няколко пъти 😁🤍💚❤️🙏
Haha 😀 If you were going to divorce me when I came next time.😁
Нямаш проблеми 🤍💚❤️🙏
Amazing! I'm fascinated to see an 850-old fortress still in its presentable conditions. It's surely clear evidence of how primitive architecture has survived through many generations only by utilizing basic building materials such as stone. On top of that, the magnificent cathedral resting on the hill is definitely that site's crowning glory. What a marvelous tour! It was like walking with you through this remarkable environment.

What a magnificent site. I could spend hours meandering those stone paved streets in the village & fortress. And the frescoes in the church are so vibrant. Are they original or they’ve been restored recently?
