Established in 1878, this large and attractive green space overlooking the sea stretches for about 8km, and is said to be the largest of its kind in Europe. It’s full of promenading families and old ladies knitting lace in summer, and there’s always something going on.
Further into the park is the Aquarium . Housed in a powder-blue Art Deco building, it’s an old-fashioned place with tanks filled with denizens of the Black Sea’s depths. There’s no English labelling.
In the northern section, the small Zoopark features monkeys, camels, kangaroos and black swans. About 200m further north, the Terrarium Varna has a collection of creepy crawlies including snakes, spiders and scorpions.
