Obzor is located on the border between Burgas and Varna. It is located in a gulf and extends north of Cape St. Atanas to the Emin mountain. The Obzor resort is situated on a magnificent route that connects the southern and northern seacoasts, 65 kilometers south of Varna and 6 kilometers from Byala. Burgas is 74 kilometers distant and Nesebar is 37 kilometers away.
The town has a population of around 2,000 people. The climate is temperate-continental, with an average monthly temperature of 23° C in July.
The resort’s beach is about ten kilometers long and twenty to sixty meters broad. The southern beach and Irakli are very lovely. Sand is fine-grained and golden in hue.
Obzor provides a variety of entertainment alternatives – discos, clubs, restaurants, pubs, and small family eateries – and appealing facilities, slides, and pools are available at the hotel complexes for children. The town’s hotels are many and diverse — there are enormous, opulent resorts as well as tiny, family-run establishments.
Obzor is one of the most old seaside communities. Numerous architectural and pottery elements uncovered in the town’s vicinity, as well as the ruins of fortress walls, witness to the town’s illustrious millennium-old past. The area’s original village was Thracian and was called Navlohos. Heliopolis (Sunny Town) was built here by the Greeks in the first century BC. Later, the Byzantine emperors’ summer house was erected on the same grounds.
The Romans established a Jupiter temple here, as well as a stronghold to secure their maritime commerce routes between Constantinople and the Danube. Today, the remnants of columns, capitals, and sculptures from the Roman Jupiter temple are on display in Obzor’s modest park. Later, the Bulgarians erected the Kozyak stronghold here, the ruins of which may be seen around three kilometers from Obzor. Today, in the Kaleto region, ruins of castle foundations and remnants of fort towers may be observed.
Gyozeken (Obzor in Turkish) was developed on these grounds under the Ottoman Dominion. The settlement was renamed Kozyak Grad in 1934, and the town was renamed Obzor in 1936.
Obzor was incorporated as a town on 9 September 1984.
Tourists in Obzor may see the town’s museum display. The historic and ethnographic collection spans more than three decades and documents the history, lifestyle, and culture of the old village’s residents. The objects are classified into two broad categories. History and archaeology are the first. It has around 800 exhibits from the 5th – 4th centuries BC to the 18th century AD. The second is an ethnographic exhibition with over 300 objects on display. It spans the eighteenth and twentieth centuries AD.
Tourism in Obzor
Obzor’s beach is roughly 10 kilometers long and 20–60 meters broad. Between the Sunny Beach and Golden Sands resorts, this is the biggest beach. The beach at Irakli and the southern beach are particularly lovely and unspoiled. That area has a temperate-continental climate, with an average temperature of roughly 23° C in July. Even during the peak season, Obzor remains uncrowded.
Obzor’s hotel complexes have a variety of leisure choices for children, including swimming pools with water slides and children’s playgrounds.
Obzor is a prehistoric hamlet with significant architectural relics, pottery shards, and remnants of castle walls. Heliopolis was the name given to the town by the ancient Greeks (town of the sun). Its origins are visible in a tiny park surrounded with columns and remnants of statues from a Roman temple dedicated to Jupiter. Additionally, the Romans constructed a stronghold nearby to secure their maritime commercial routes between the Danube and Constantinople. The medieval Bulgarians built the castle of Kozyak nearby.
South of Obzor, a route winds between open vineyards and the forested Balkan mountain range for 14 kilometers to Cape Emine, which overlooks the Bay of Nessebar. Bulgaria’s most dangerous cape is home to a lighthouse, a monastery, and the remnants of a medieval fortification. However, the only building that remains now is a disused church. Emona, a neighbouring hamlet, had a Thracian sanctuary and, subsequently, a Jupiter shrine.
