The starting point of this typical urban route is one of the most emblematic buildings of Burgas - The Clock. It is located next to the Town Hall, in the garden between the streets "Alexandrovska", "Vazrajdane" and "George Kirkov" . The clock was purchased and donated to the city engineer Georgi Markov, during his travels in Switzerland. Long time local authorities failed to choose a place where to put it, but ultimately decided that he should occupy a central position between the main streets and buildings in Burgas.
