Audio Guide of Rosarium Park

Rosarium Park is an open-air space, so it is generally open 24 hours a day, every day. It is located in the heart of Kazanlak and is easily reachable on foot from most parts of the city. You can use Google Maps for precise directions.

Good news! Admission to Rosarium Park is completely free. You can enjoy its paths, gardens, and the beauty of the roses without paying any fee.

For a relaxed visit, I suggest setting aside between 1 and 2 hours. This will allow you to stroll through the different sections of the park, admire the various rose varieties, and take some photos at your leisure. If you are passionate about botany, you may want to stay a little longer.

Rosarium Park celebrates Kazanlak’s rich rose-growing tradition, as the city is known as the 'Capital of the Rose Valley.' It was created to showcase the beauty and diversity of Bulgaria’s 'liquid gold,' rose oil, which has been essential to the local economy and culture for centuries. It is a living symbol of the region’s identity.

The best time to visit is in late May and early June, when most of the roses are in bloom. During this period, the park fills with color and fragrance, and it is also when the famous Kazanlak Rose Festival takes place.

Yes, Rosarium Park has paved paths and walkways that generally make it accessible for wheelchair users and people with reduced mobility. It is an open, well-maintained space, making it easy for all visitors to get around.

Kazanlak is fascinating. Do not miss the Rose Museum to learn more about this treasure, and the Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can also explore the Iskra History Museum and the Valley of the Thracian Kings.

I recommend bringing your camera, as the opportunities for spectacular photos are endless. Dress comfortably and, if you visit in summer, do not forget sun protection and a hat. And do not hesitate to stop and smell the roses—it is a unique experience!
