Nesebar

Often referred to as the "Pearl of the Black Sea", Nesebar is a rich city-museum defined by more than three millennia of ever-changing history [1]. The small city exists in two parts separated by a narrow human-made isthmus with the ancient part of the settlement on the peninsula [1]. The older part bears evidence of occupation by a variety of different civilisations over the course of its existence [1]. At 425-424 BC the town joined the Delian League, under the leadership of Athens [1]. Remains date mostly from the Hellenistic period and include the acropolis, a temple of Apollo and an agora [1]. A wall which formed part of the Thracian fortifications can still be seen on the north side of the peninsula [1].
