Among the cities of Burgas Province, Nesebar stands out for its UNESCO-listed Old Town, set on a narrow peninsula in the Black Sea. A short isthmus connects the historic quarter to the newer town, while the shore gives the settlement its unusually compact form. Known in antiquity as Mesambria, Nesebar preserves layers of Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Bulgarian history. Its cobbled lanes lead past the Church of Christ Pantocrator and many other medieval churches, whose brick-and-stone façades define the town’s character. Beaches and modern resorts extend along the coast beyond the peninsula. Place Nesebar within Bulgaria’s southern Black Sea coast by browsing webcams nearby.
