On the International Day of Aviation and Space Travel - 12 April, the Aviation Museum in Burgas will be open to visitors free of charge.

At the museum, located at Burgas Airport in the Sarafovo district, aviation enthusiasts will get a chance to see 10 aircraft on display. Among them is the An-12, the only one left in Bulgaria, as well as the emblem of Bulgarian civil aviation "Balkan" - the Tu-154.

The celebrations will continue on the weekend of April 13-14, when entertainment is planned for the young visitors of the museum. There will be guided tours, art workshops, an exhibition of various radio-controlled aircraft. On both days between 12.30 and 14.00 there will be a tasting of space food prepared by a special method - freeze-drying.

The museum recalls that Bulgaria was the third country in the world in the production of space food, after the USA and the USSR.
