Silistra, Bulgaria May 19

First stop. Now in Bulgaria. Went on walk to old fort and back through town and along gardens by the river. Typical ex-Communist town with unattractive apartment blocks.

Fort entrance and walls

View from fort over Silistra (note many high rise blocks) and the Danube

The park and riverside walk were well kept. Indeed they were planting begonias today!
