Hundreds of residents of Burgas came to the opening of the modern Expo center "Flora - Burgas". Before stepping in the exhibition halls the people enjoyed the rich program. The kids participated in a drawing competition; dance and cheer-leading groups from different schools presented their performances. Ensemble "Strandja" showed again the riches of Bulgarian folklore. The first event, which is held in the new expo center, is National flower exhibition with international participation "Flora Burgas 2015".
