Bulgaria Launches Online Tourist Calendar

The Bulgarian Ministry of Economy,Energy and Tourism has launched an online calendar listing interesting tourists sites and events. You can see it here. The site will be updated constantly and will collect information about travel, city and town celebrations, festivals, and others. Brilliant! The site has been financed by the EU "Regional Development" Operational Program and cost over 1 million Euro. It is part of a campaign called "Find Bulgaria".
When you visit the site you will notice one slight problem.  It is only in Bulgarian!  To my knowledge, and I could be wrong, most tourists don't speak Bulgarian.  Hmmmmm.  Wonder where the 1 million Euro went to?
