Activity itinerary

Царски дворец Кричим

  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Тhis peaceful residence offers visitors a glimpse into the refined lifestyle of the Bulgarian monarchy surrounded by stunning natural scenery. The palace complex was developed in the early 20th century and became a favourite retreat of *Boris III*, who appreciated the area’s rich wildlife, forests, and tranquil atmosphere. Originally designed as a royal hunting residence, Krichim Palace quickly evolved into a quiet sanctuary where the royal family could relax away from the busy life of the capital. What makes Krichim Palace truly special is its harmonious connection with nature. Elegant buildings, spacious courtyards, and charming park areas form a unique royal complex that once hosted aristocrats, diplomats, and important guests from across Europe.

After the visit of the formal royal residence, continue to a nearby boutique wine estate. Bulgaria is among the world’s oldest wine-producing regions.
