- In today's video the travel turtles visit Sozopol, Bulgaria including the old town parts of the new town and beach. This is another beautiful ancient town in Bulgaria, one of the oldest on the Black Sea cost dating back to the bronze age.
Founded in the 7th century BC by Greek colonists as Anthea, the town was an important naval and trade centre for many centuries. Its name was changed to Apollonia after a temple to the God Apollo was erected in the town. When the town came under the influence of the Byzantine empire its name was changed to Sozopoli meaning "city of salvation ".
Around the turn of the first millennium, the town fell to the Turks and its influence declined, reverting back to little more than a fishing village. In the 19th century, many of the town's population fled to Russia to avoid retaliation by the Turks after the Russio-Turkish war and it remained deserted for several decades before being resettled by Turks, Bulgarians and Greeks.
Communist influence in the 1950s promoted Sozopol as a tourist destination although it took until the 1990s before the town became a holiday resort in its own right with mainly German and Russian tourists holidaying there.

Is it liveable year-round? Do shops stay open?
Hi Jann. Sozopol doesn't close completely like the larger Sunny Beach resort up the coast but many of the bars,shops and restaurants do shut down as the weather during the winter months can drop to single figures and it has been known to snow on the odd occasion. On the positive side prices are cheap as there is still a fairly large local population that live in the town and due to the fact that the port is still a year round working port there is always a little activity going on. Hope this goes someway to help answer your query..Many thanks for watching our video...Stay safe 🙏
