Veliko Turnovo Veliko Turnovo, ( Veliko Tarnovo, Veliko Trnovo ) was a medieval capital of Bulgaria. It is situated in the foothills between the Danube Plain and the Stara Planina ("old mountains") of the Balkan range. Although there are few bona-fide tourist attractions here, it is a great place to relax, watch the people, and soak up some atmosphere. The "old town" is functional, and in many respects indistinguishable from the new. VT is a university town, and the mood is young and upbeat.
