Near the city is an ancient Thracian tomb dating back to 4th century BOT and is a World Heritage site. Inside the tomb is a narrow corridor opening to a round burial chamber, both of which are decorated with murals depicting a ritual funeral feast. Unfortunately, only a copy can be visited here (in the museum).
However, all other (open) tombs in the region are originals. If you are less interested in an "unoriginal" fresco, head to the Seuthes 2 & 3 and Shushmanets et al. tombs, where you can actually enter the tomb and feel a little like in Egypt.
The Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak is a vaulted-brickwork "beehive" (tholos) tomb that is located near the town of Kazanlak in central Bulgaria. The tomb is part of a large royal Thracian necropolis in the Valley of the Thracian Rulers near their ancient capital of Seuthopolis in a region where more than a thousand tombs of royalty and members of the Thracian aristocracy can be found. It lies in the Kazanlak Valley, enclosed between the Balkan Mountains to the north and the Sredna Gora mountain range to the south.
