The town of Balchik is a small resort town situated 43km to the north of Varna and only 17km off the worldwide famous “Albena” Sea Resort. It is a relatively large settlement along the Northern seaside and a harbour used for medium-sized passenger and commercial vessels. The Balchik’s yacht port boasts a capacity to shelter up to 60 yachts and offers very competitive prices. The town combines the romance of its steep streets with the beauty of the sea. For a long time it has been known as the White Town for the mainly white color of its lime rocks. The chief attraction of the place is the wonderful Botanical Garden, a branch of the University of Sofia. Its ten hectares surround the small summer palace of the Romanian Queen Marie. (The area was part of Romania between 1913 and 1940). The attractive villa has the unusual addition of a minaret, said to have been built for the Queen's Turkish over. The gardens are the habitat of 3000 or so plant species of which cacti alone are over 250, and is therefore recognized as Europe's second most important collection. The gardens are set on a steep hillside, and descend in six terraces to the sea - supposedly one for each of the Queen's children. There are over three thousand varieties of shrubs, roses and flowers, set among streams, waterfalls, and ornamental water canals. There is a rock garden, a formal French one with clipped box cones and geometric beds, and an astonishing collection of cacti. Interspersed are stone thrones, seats, pillars and ornaments collected by the Queen.
