Burgas has become part of the 168 cities from a total of 30 European countries that are included in the online platform Cultural Gems.

117 iconic buildings, places and views found a place on the cultural map https://culturalgems.jrc.ec.europa.eu/.

Let us recall that 40% of tourism is related to cultural tourism, and three out of four European tourists choose their tourist destination, taking into account cultural attractions and opportunities. This is particularly true of tourism in Europe, as it is home to half of the UNESCO World Heritage sites. The restoration and development of tourism goes through culture.
