Plovdiv District Plovdiv (Bulgarian: Пловдив) is the second-largest city in Bulgaria after Sofia, with a population of 341,873 as at 28/11/2006. It is the administrative centre of Plovdiv Province in southern Bulgaria, as well as the largest and most important city of the historical region of Upper (ot Northern) Thrace, famous for its ancient and diverse culture and millennial history.
Plovdiv is located on the banks of
the Maritsa river in the central part of Upper Thrace. The
surrounding countryside is sparsely populated and bare, yet the
city itself is particularly striking, since it, like Rome, is
nestled in between seven hills. Tourists, however, are likely to
count only six of those, as one of hills was virtually destroyed
at the beginning of the 1900s, and there is only a small outcrop
of rock left to show where it once stood.
During its long history, Plovdiv was inhabited by many peoples who gave it different names: in Thracian: Evmolpia, Pulpudeva; Greek: Φιλιππούπολη, Φιλιππούπολις / Philippoupoli, Philippoupolis; Turkish: Filibe. In the Middle Ages the Bulgarians called the city Пълдин or Плъвдив. The city was usually known as Philippolis in English until the early 20th century.
