“Bulgarian history is intertwined with so many cultures, and that is part of its beauty,” said Prof. Bettany Hughes, the English historian and broadcaster. She presented the episode of her series Treasures of the World dedicated to Bulgaria at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris. The event was organised by the Bulgarian Ministry of Tourism during the 47th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee.
"I completely fell in love with Bulgaria, as you can probably tell from the film. It was the first one we made. Then, because the first one became extremely popular, we shot a second one. Over 50 million people have watched these films, said Hughes. Deputy Minister of Tourism Irena Georgieva presented the British historian with a copy of the Panagyurishte Golden Treasure.
“The next project we are planning is a series on the world's greatest cities. Of course, Sofia and Plovdiv must be included in this series,” said Prof. Hughes.
