Review:

An arm of the Ministry of Defense, the National Museum of Military History dedicates itself to Bulgaria's interesting military past. Many of the exhibits are outdoors and include a mammoth assortment of artillery, missiles, military vehicles, tanks, and aircraft. The exhibitions are broken down by events such as the Russo-Turkish War of Liberation or Declaring the Independence of Bulgaria. Visitors will not only enjoy the extensive outdoor structures and models, but will also come across a collection of decorations, uniforms, weapons, and artworks relative to Bulgaria's military history. Visitors can participate in one of the museum's educational workshops; the museum caters to their younger audience by having a separate children's museum, which introduces Bulgaria's military history in a fun and entertaining way.
