Sea and Ruins from the Fortification System
As a summer resort Nessebar offers you all you need - sea, rich history, interesting architecture style and amazing atmosphere.
No doubt it deserves to be a UNESCO World's Heritage site.

Note that there are at least 3 popular transciptions of Nessebar's name:
Nessebar
Nesebar
Nesebur - this one is used on UNESCO World Heritage list.
Church Christ Pantocrator

Some History Notes

Originally a Thracian settlement named Menebria which became a Greek colony - Messembria in the 6th century BC, then fell down under Roman rule in 71BC. Later it was a subject of battles between Bulgarians and Byzantines. In 1812 after a two-week siege it was captured by the Bulgarian Khan Krum. When Bulgaria fell down under the rule of the Ottoman turks it was captured by them.
