Varna is the third-largest city in Bulgaria and the largest city and seaside resort on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and in the Northern Bulgaria region. Situated in the Gulf of Varna, the city has been a major economic, social and cultural centre for almost three millennia. Historically known as Odessos, Varna developed from a Thracian seaside settlement into a major seaport on the Black Sea.
