Pazardzhik, Administrative center in Upper Thracian Plain, Bulgaria.
The city stretches along the Maritsa River banks, positioned 37 kilometers west of Plovdiv and 112 kilometers southeast of Sofia at 205 meters elevation.
Archaeological discoveries near Maritsa River indicate settlements from the 7th millennium BC, with a clay idol named Pazardzhik Venus found in 1872.
The Regional Historical Museum preserves collections representing different periods of local development through artifacts, documents, and ethnographic materials.
The municipal transportation system includes trolleybus lines established in 1993 and regular bus services connecting different parts of the urban area.
Rice cultivation marked the agricultural landscape until the late 20th century, making this region distinct in Bulgarian farming traditions.
