Shopping is one of the pleasant components of a good holiday. Many tourists strive to bring gifts to family and friends from different countries. And I also want to buy something that will remind me of a great vacation. If you are going on vacation to Bulgaria, leave a free space in your suitcase: before leaving, it will certainly be filled with local souvenirs.
Roses
The visiting card of Bulgaria is the rose. The streets of any resort and town in the country are literally buried in these colors. And at every step there is a shop or shop with products based on healing rose oil. You can buy rose water, a variety of creams, shampoos, lotions, amazingly scented soaps, hair oils, and more. All products are exclusively natural, with a very pleasant smell, and are inexpensive. And exotic lovers can even buy rose-based liqueur and petal confiture.
Silver
In Bulgaria, handmade silver items are sold at every step. There are jewelry made of alloys with nickel and copper, there are also jewelry made of 925 sterling silver. All models are very beautiful, original and unusual. Even those women who are accustomed to wearing gold are unlikely to resist silver earrings, bracelets, and pendants.
Ceramics
Bulgarian ceramics will look great in the kitchen. You can buy plates, teapots, pots, tureens, cups with traditional national painting or take creative products of fancy shape. By the way, the pattern on the ceramic items is of a protective nature. Previously, the old masters believed that this ornament helps to drive away all kinds of evil spirits.
Embroidery
Bring yourself or as a gift a Bulgarian tablecloth, napkin, towel, curtains or blouse. Usually, there is a fairly large selection on stalls in tourist cities. These are handmade products, they are crocheted and embroidered with roses by local needlewoman grandmothers.
Wine and rakia
Bulgarian wine is tasty and very inexpensive: the most seasoned one does not cost more than 5 euros, but there are wines for 1, 5 euros, which are also quite good. There are also a lot of rakia in Bulgaria, very different - and based on grapes, and plum, from apples, figs, apricots. Some brandy varieties are aged in oak barrels for 7 years. Men claim that the taste of such a drink is excellent. It is sold both in large bottles and in small souvenir bottles, which can be taken by many friends for a sample.
