Plovdiv Province: Bulgaria's Second City and the Thracian Plain
Plovdiv Province is the most populous oblast in Bulgaria outside the capital, with over 668,000 residents. The city of Plovdiv accounts for roughly 346,000 of those and ranks as the country's second-largest urban centre. Built across seven hills along the Maritsa River, Plovdiv claims continuous habitation stretching back at least 6,000 years, placing it among the oldest cities in Europe. The Old Town preserves National Revival-era houses from the 18th and 19th centuries, and the Roman stadium and amphitheatre remain partially visible within the modern street grid. Plovdiv served as European Capital of Culture in 2019.
The broader province spans the Upper Thracian Lowland, one of Bulgaria's most productive agricultural zones. Rice paddies near Sadovo, tobacco around Asenovgrad, and vineyards across the southern slopes produce regional specialties. Trakia Economic Zone, one of the largest industrial zones in southeastern Europe, sits east of the city and houses electronics, automotive components, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Karlovo and Sopot, to the north in the sub-Balkan valley, are associated with rose oil production - Bulgaria supplies a significant portion of the global rose oil market.
