From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sandanski (Bulgarian: Сандански, formerly, until 1949 Свети Врач, Sveti Vrach) is a town and a recreation centre in south-western Bulgaria, part of Blagoevgrad Province. Named after Bulgarian revolutionary Yane Sandanski, it is located in a valley at the foot of Pirin Mountain, on both banks of the Sandanska Bistritsa River. Another famous native son of the town was Spartacus, the Roman slave who launched an uprising in 73-71BC.
Sandanski's favourable position, suitable climate (with the highest average annual temperature in the country, +19,70°C) and the concentration of mineral water springs in the area are all reasons for the town's fame as a centre for relaxation and recreation.
