Today, I will take you on a new trip. This trip will be to Bulgaria at Balcic, we will visit a beautiful palace.
The palace is situated near the Black Sea. From inside the castle, you can easily see the sea.

Between 1913-1940, Balcic was part of Romania same as all of south Dobrogea. After the second war, Balcic will return to Bulgaria.
When Balcic was a Romanian town, the Queen of Romania visited the town. Queen Maria loved the place, so she built a palace here. Her summer residence.
The palace that was also called the lonely nest was actually a big Villa with white walls and a red roof guarded by a minaret

The lonely nest was built in a Turkish style with Italian elements.
This beautiful nest was the favorite place for Queen Maria, so favorite that she wanted that after her death, her heart to be taken from her chest and be kept here. Here, her heart was for a long time, closed in a box and kept. A bit more about that can be read below.

Now, let’s take a look inside the lonely nest.
