We promise you’ve never heard of this spot… 😱 (Okay we’re 99% sure..😉) 📍We spent the morning exploring Belogradchik Fortress in Bulgaria — a place that has been called Europe’s greatest hidden gem — and honestly?! We’re still not over it. The beauty of Bulgaria and this entire region has completely blown us away 🇧🇬 We kept asking each other: How have we never heard of this before?! But that’s the magic of sailing with Viking — they take you straight to the places the world hasn’t discovered yet 🛳️💫 Here’s what the rest of the day looked like: 🧀 Visited a local Bulgarian family’s homeThey taught us to make Banitza (the most delicious traditional pastry) AND shared the secrets behind Bulgaria’s world-famous yogurt. Truly unforgettable. 🛳️ Dinner back on boardA cozy, delicious evening as the sun set over the river. 💃🎶 Traditional music + dance performanceThe Vidin Children’s Chamber performed for us and it was such a special cultural moment — so much talent and so much heart!
