I visited Plovdiv in 2023 and was amazed of how beautiful the city was. I had rented a room near the center of the town so I had the opportunity to walk around a lot in the center. In the streets next to the main pedestrian street there were lots of amazing display of graffiti. I think that the local authorities may have legalized it in some form.
I am going back to Plovdiv because I found out that they have a whole city district dedicated for art called Kapana (Капана). Of curiosity I went on Google Maps and walked around and found this corner of a house that had been painted.
These shots are taking with a mobile phone. Next time in Plovdiv I will bring a better camera and hopefully capture even better pictures.
Plovdiv is a must see if you are travelling in Bulgaria.

This is a fun and clever art piece. Banksy wannabe and quite well executed.
Graffiti from Plovdiv. There is also room in the city for people expressing other desires than street art
In many places you could find Vasil Levski (Васил Левски) a Bulgarian national hero
