One of the world’s most prestigious travel guide publishers, Lonely Planet, has released a booklet with the 10 best value destinations for 2024.
The authors offer their audience 10 destinations that tourists should visit in the new year without hitting their budget too hard.
Suggestions include the US Midwest, Poland, Nicaragua, the Normandy region of France, Egypt, the Greek island of Ikaria, Algeria, New Zealand and… Bulgaria.
They call it the Danubian Limes, which refers to the border of the Roman Empire along the Danube River with the adjacent fortification system that formed the outer defensive ring of the empire. Today, it covers the countries of Bulgaria, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia and Romania. Today, the area, which is a candidate for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List, is dotted with countless cities, but the Bulgarian ones are more than impressive, especially cities like Vidin and Silistra.
The Australian publication also recommends that tourists enjoy an overnight train ride across the Old Continent, which ranks 10th as a “destination”.
