There are spice shops from Asia and Bulgaria. We recommend that you get savory - dipped or colorful salt, both of which are used in Bulgarian cuisine. Colorful salt is a very nice spice for white cheese and a toast with butter. There you will also find butcher shops - with Bulgarian and Turkish delicacies. Gift shops - from Bulgarian rose oil to handmade household items.
