Among Bulgaria’s regions, Haskovo stands out for its position between the Eastern Rhodope foothills and the lowlands of the Maritsa River. In the country’s southeast, the province reaches both the Greek and Turkish borders, giving it a long-standing role on routes between the Balkans and the Aegean. Haskovo city is its administrative centre, while Harmanli, Svilengrad and Ivaylovgrad lie across a warm, rolling interior. Vineyards and tobacco have long shaped the rural economy, and the area preserves traces of Thracian, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman eras. Near Ivaylovgrad, the Roman Villa Armira is a notable archaeological site, known for its mosaic floors.
