Ruse
The city of Ruse is situated on the highest right bank of the Danube river, at a distance of 320 km from Sofia, 200 km from Varna and about 300 km from Plovdiv. The population of the city is about 180 000 people. This is one of the largest cities in the country – an important cultural, commercial and industrial center.
Even today the Danube river is a basic factor for the development not only of Ruse, but for all of Bulgaria. The Danube Bridge by Ruse has a strategic importance because the crossing of the river by automobile and railway transport in the eastern part of the Bulgarian peninsula had been performed only through it. A number of cruise companies organize travels along the Danube and some of them include passing through the Bulgarian territory in their schedules.
The city is a host of multiple cultural events such as the Ruse Carnival, the March Music Days, the Autumn Days of Arts and Science, etc.
The tourist exhibition entitled Weekend Tourism is conducted annually in Ruse. The festival of Tourist Entertainment and Animation is also conducted as a part of the schedule within the framework of the Exhibition.
