Hissar is ancient town and world-famous spa resort, situated in the centre of Bulgaria, in the southern folds of Sredna Gora Mountains, 42 km north of Plovdiv and 167 km east of Sofia, close to the Valley of Roses.

During the age of the Roman Empire, the town, called Augusta, was a wealthy healing centre with Emperor’s palaces, wide stone streets, marble baths, statues of Roman Gods and exuberant vegetation.
Today Hissar is a modern spa resort that offers all facilities for balneotherapy. There are 22 mineral springs here - 16 natural and 6 deeply drilled.
