The hill and Tsar Simeon Garden
Tsar Simeon Garden is the large city park in the centre of Plovdiv, while Youth Hill is a natural hill. The two complement each other well in one walk.
Differences
Youth Hill is higher and forested with a panorama; Tsar Simeon Garden is a flat city park with alleys, fountains and shade. Good for a different pace.
Route
Go down from the hill to the centre and continue to the garden. On foot it is a moderate distance; plan it as the second part of the walk.
Scenarios
For an active morning – the hill; for a calm shaded afternoon walk – the garden. Together they make a full day outdoors.
Frequently asked questions
Is the garden far from the hill?
A moderate walking distance through the centre – plan it as the second part.
