Bulgaria is located in southeast Europe, in the center of the Balkans. The country has a Black Sea shoreline in the east and public borders with Romania, Serbia, North Macedonia, Greece, and Turkey, going counterclockwise from the north. Bulgaria, whose total area is 111,000 square kilometers, is mostly a mountainous country because the Balkan mountain range passes through its center. The Danube forms part of the border between Bulgaria and Romania as it travels to the Black Sea, and the longest waterway is the 368 km-long Iskar.
There is little variation in the temperature across the country; the south and west get the hottest air. The climate is calm, with scorching, dry summers and cold, wet winters.
Bulgaria’s car foundation lags behind many other European countries in terms of standards. Significant train links exist between Sofia and several nearby countries, such as Greece, Romania, and Turkey. Underinvestment occurs in the rail network, despite a recent redesign of the Plovdiv train line to the Greek and Turkish edges. Anyone is unimpressed by the state of the country’s streets, considering that there are only about 200 miles of fast roads in operation. Nevertheless, measures are underway to modernize roadways and create new links. In addition, a sizable road stretch connects Sofia with the Black Sea.
By far the largest and most important airport in the country, Sofia Airport transports passengers and goods to many European destinations. Over 1.7 million passengers were accommodated at the airport in the first six months of 2012. Ordinary air terminals at Burgas and Varna handle inbound planes and non-business traffic.
Bulgaria uses the internet less than other European countries. For many Bulgarians, the cost of purchasing a PC and the necessary affiliations is still above their means. The base is growing, and there are several ISPs operating across the country. There are just around 3.4 million people with Internet connections.
Adopting flexible communication is just as fruitful as working with other countries. In Bulgaria, there are currently more than 2.3 million fixed landlines and about 10 million cell phones.
