SVISHTOVSVISHTOV BeforeBefore && NowNow HistoryHistory • Svishtov is a small town beautifully situated on the Danube River, in the northern part of Bulgaria. It has rich and fascinating history. During the 3-4 c. B.C. there was a Roman fortress, which remains can be still seen in the suburbs of the city. • The name Svishtov originates from the word "light", "candle" because in the past people used to make fires on the highest point of the town as an orientation for fishermen. The location of Svishtov gave it the opportunity to become the biggest commercial and cultural centre of Bulgaria. In the time of our Renaissance here were founded the first Bulgarian choir, theatre and school of trade and commerce. • In present days Svishtov looks like a small town that is extremely populated with students. THETHE ACADEMYACADEMY OFOF ECONOMICSECONOMICS "D."D. A.A. TSENOV"TSENOV" • The inhabitants of Svishtov gave their charities for establishment of various schools and one of them was our economic university. Dimitar Tsenov founded it in 1936. He wanted to create a trade school like the German ones at that time. The economic university has the tradition in teaching finance, accounting, insurance, marketing, management, and international business.

  • Models of Architecture from the Middle Ages to Present on the Valley of Struma River
    MODELS OF ARCHITECTURE FROM THE MIDDLE AGES TO PRESENT ON THE VALLEY OF STRUMA RIVER Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria Brestovo Monastery “St. Archangel Michael”, Municipality of Simitly, Bulgaria Pirin village, Bulgaria Melnik, Bulgaria Serres, Greece Blagoevgrad is the largest city in Southwest Bulgaria, the administrative center of Blagoevgrad District and Blagoevgrad Municipality. It is situated at the foot of the southwestern slopes of the Rila Mountain, in the valley of the Struma River, 100 km south from the capital Sofia. The city is located on the two banks of the Bistritsa river, just before its inflow into the Struma River. Besides the clear waters of the river, important factors for the development of the city were the mineral springs and the favorable central location of the city, situated between Sofia and Thessaloniki, Kyustendil and Razlog. About 35 km away from the city, in the upper course of the Bistritsa River, is located the ancient Parangalitsa forest - one of the most valuable reserves in Bulgaria. In 1973, it was proclaimed by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve. The history of Blagoevgrad dates back to 10th century BC. The Thracian settlement Skaptopara (Upper Market) was founded around the mineral springs around 300 BC. This settlement has been associated with the Thracian tribe Denteleti who inhabited the upper valley of the Struma River. In the 1st century AD the Thracians were conquered by the Romans. A Roman settlement from 3rd-5th century has been discovered in 2017, near the village of Pokrovnik, about 3 km from Blagoevgrad. The establishment’s location did coincide with the planned route of Struma highway and it has been destroyed, with only a few of the excavated buildings being moved away from the road.

  • Project Plan for Sustainable Urban Transport Planning of the City of Gorna Oryahovitsa
    Project Plan for sustainable urban transport planning of the city of Gorna Oryahovitsa 1 INTRODUCTION Over 60 % of the population of the European Union lives in cities, in Bulgaria this percent is even higher – 71.4%1. Almost 85 % of the gross domestic product of the EU is produced in the cities. The cities are the engine of the European and the national economies. They attract investments and new places of work and are especially necessary for the unobstructed functioning of the country’s economic life. Being the environment of the greatest part of the population, the city life standard, including the mobility problems, must be as high as possible. The trend of traffic becoming heavier in the central parts is valid for all European cities. It results in frequent traffic jams, with all the adverse consequences from them as time loss, higher risk of road accidents and pollution of the environment. As a result the European economy loses about 100 billion Euro or 1 % of the GDP of the EU. The atmospheric and the noise pollution increase every year. The city traffic is the reason for 40 % of the emissions of CO2 and 70 % of the emissions of the other pollutants originating from the road transport. At European level, the number of the road accidents in the cities increases every year: at present one of each three accidents with a lethal outcome occurs in the cities, and the most vulnerable, pedestrians and cyclists are most often the victims. In Bulgaria this parameter is even higher: 36% of the killed, 63% of the injured and 66% of the road accidents are registered in the residential areas 2.
