At a working lunch in Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and Serbian President Alexander Vucic discussed the current summer tourist season and tourist travels.

In the old Bulgarian capital city, in the church of "Sts. 40 Martyrs", the relics of the most revered Serbian Saint Sava have been preserved since the 13th century. The Serbian President said popularizing the church from the times of Tsar Ivan Asen was a personal cause and expressed confidence that more Serbs would come to visit the place.

PM Borissov said that the number of Serbian tourists would rise thanks to the Hemus Highway, which will near Veliko Tarnovo. According to him, the 17-kilometer section of the highway between Dragoman and Slivnitsa would be ready by the end of the year.
