Sveta Marina church
Eastern Orthodox Church
👍👍 A place of peace and reflection. When crowds of tourists crowd through the old town in summer, you can pause here at the shady walls.

Gate "Hisar Kapia", Plovdiv
Tourist attraction
👍 A medieval gate and a touristic attraction; it is not really that interesting to look at; however, it is an historic site dating back from the 2nd century AD and located in the Old Town so make sure you don’t miss it when you walk around all the beautiful little lanes.

Museum
👍👍 Wonderful house of the Revival Period built in the symmetrical style and hosting the work of one if Bulgaria's most famous painters. 70 works are in display most of them focusing on peasant life in the realist style.
