Guess Big cities in Bulgaria

A quick look at the 6 big cities you can be asked to find on the map, before you play.

These are the places most people already know by name, capitals and major hubs with a large population. They tend to sit on a coastline, a river, or a border, and their outline on the map is usually distinctive.

In Bulgaria this set is spread across 6 different provinces, with Sofia-Capital home to the most of them (1).

How this category is defined

Place kinds on GuessTheDot are a practical grouping by population and place type for gameplay, not a legal or historical designation. A place can hold official city rights (or an old city charter) and still show up here as a village if it stayed small, and the other way around: this is a rough size ladder for guessing, not a statement about a place's official status.
