Eating and Drinking Outside a Yambol Street Cafe on New Year's Eve

The last day of the year on New Year's Eve, right in the middle of winter I find that people are still sitting outside, eating, drinking and talking in this street cafe in the middle of the town. Mind you most have their coats on.

Yambol's Polytechnic

The Yambol Polytechnic is where most Yambol students attend once leaving high school. Situated just 200 metres from the town centre and next to the beautiful Yambol Town Park, thousands of Yambol students attend courses there before going out to work or moving on into higher Education either abroad or in other bigger town and cities in Bulgaria.

Yambol's Coach Booking Office

This is just opposite the Yambol Polytechnic and where you have to go to buy coach and bus tickets to travel. Coach travel is cheap and the staff there very helpful, (and attractive). They speak English but I try to speak to them in Bulgarian and they play along with me.

Yambol's Main Post Office

The main Post Office is the town centre opposite the park. It is probably the most popular meeting place for people. Its always busy and queuing up at the counters is fun. It is also the BTK (Bulgaria's Telephone Company) office where you bill it paid and the place where you can get your National Road Disc.

One of Many Casinos in Yambol

Yambol has many Casinos, don't ask my why, I suppose if there must be a demand from somewhere! This is one of them, always bright with flashing lights, not my scene at all.
