Bulgaria’s coastal bunkers, remnants of its WWII alliance with Nazi Germany, are scattered along the Black Sea coast. In Burgas, one bunker sits just off Central Beach, between the Pantheon of the Fallen Antifascists and the Flora Burgas Expo Centre. Another can be found near Lake Atanasovsko, known as the Bunker at the Salt Pans. Once military outposts, these structures now stand as silent reminders of a complex past, with some repurposed into cafes and covered in murals, or left abandoned, offering a glimpse into 20th-century history.

The Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius, completed in 1907, honours the 9th-century Byzantine brothers who evangelised the Slavs and are credited with creating the Cyrillic alphabet. Designed by Italian architect Ricardo Toscani, this Orthodox cathedral features a three-nave basilica with marble columns and a striking stained-glass depiction of the saints. Known for its intricate iconostasis and frescoes by renowned Bulgarian artists, the church underwent foundation repairs in 2016 and remains a significant cultural and spiritual landmark.
