Europe's Oldest City From Above - Plovdiv, Bulgaria

Fly over Plovdiv, Bulgaria in 4K - the oldest continuously inhabited city in Europe. This cinematic drone flight climbs above Bunardzhik Hill and the Alyosha Monument at golden hour, drifts over the red rooftops of the Old Town, the Roman Theatre carved into the hillside, and the winding Maritsa River, with the Rhodope Mountains on the horizon.

People have lived here without interruption for around 8,000 years - longer than Rome, Athens or Constantinople. Thracians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans and Bulgarians each built on top of what came before, and the result is a city where a 2nd-century Roman theatre built under Emperor Trajan still hosts concerts today. Known as the City of the Seven Hills and named European Capital of Culture in 2019, Plovdiv is one of the most underrated destinations in the Balkans - and from the air you can see all of it at once.
