Other sights in Balchik

  1. Summer Palace of Queen Marie

    Undoubtedly the prize attraction of Balchik is this lovely palace. It was built in 1924–26 by King Ferdinand of Romania for his English wife, Queen Marie – a granddaughter of Queen Victoria – as a place of solitude and contemplation (Balchik was then part of Romania). Marie, a follower of the Bahá’í faith, called it ‘The Quiet Nest’ and allegedly entertained her much younger Turkish lover here.
