The Coolest Resurrected City You'll Ever See






So far its just in the planning stages, but is as cool a concept as Dubai's artificial Palm islands, and I hope Bulgaria goes through with it. It will involve the construction of a 65-ft high circular dyke over a mile in circumference in order to expose the ancient city of Seuthopolis, which was flooded over when a dam was built nearby in 1954.There are of course a great deal of technical hurdles to overcome, but when complete it will be a tourist destination unlike any other. Not only do I want to visit when its done, but the idea sounds like a very cool location to use for a story or some artwork...
