Formed around a sheltered Black Sea port, Burgas developed into one of Bulgaria’s principal maritime cities. It stands on Burgas Bay, with Lake Burgas, also called Vaya, to the west and the saltwater Atanasovsko Lake to the north; both wetlands lie on the Via Pontica bird-migration route. The Sea Garden follows the coast towards the city pier, a well-used promenade for residents and summer visitors. In the centre, the Cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius is a notable landmark dating from the turn of the 20th century. Burgas is also the administrative centre of Burgas Province and an important transport hub for Bulgaria’s southern coast.
