No entrance fees for Plovdiv museums each Thursday

Anita Valentinova, source :bpost.bg, 02.04.2009

From now visitors will not be made to pay entrance fees in Plovdiv museums on Thursday since visits will be free each Thursday. Thus, Plovdiv city meets UNESCO criteria related to museums activities worldwide. In addition, the open doors day in Plovdiv will give to more residents and visitors the opportunity to touch and explore historical and cultural landmarks of the city. Another activity that the city plans to undertake is the renovation of its archaeology museum. A company to get involved in the activities is to be selected and renovation works are to end by October. Plovdiv Archaeology Museum is the biggest museum of its kind in Bulgaria following the National Archaeology Museum in Sofia. However, it is the richest museum housing finds of ancient Trakia. Its precious valuables are arranged into three departments-ancient history, antiquity and Middle Ages. In the same building is housed Plovdiv History Museum which gives a light to the historical past of the region from the early Ottoman period till nowadays. Natural Science Museum in the city also presents to its visitors a rich collection of the field of paleontology, mineralogy and botany. There can be also seen the biggest freshwater aquarium in Bulgaria, a home to more than 40 species of fish and amphibians. The Ethnography Museum in Plovdiv is housed in one of the most remarkable houses from the Bulgarian Revival period in the antique Plovdiv city . Its exposition represents the diverse culture of Plovdiv region.
