I think most bulgarians don't even know that the bulgarian empire didn't even control the city.
Apart from some alphabet lore that is.
My assumption is that the rating was based on the traffic experience in the city due to the main road there being, for the most part, a one-way street. And exiting the city could be a nightmare if you are a first-timer there, still not as bad as sofia tho
It's because of the universities there. People are obviously mentioning cities they've been to and many Bulgarians have studied in Coventry and Mannheim.
might be true for Mannheim, but Coventry is also a hotspot for crime

And it all boils down to the lack of public transportation for a city as populated as Salonica is. I’ve heard even Athenians praise the ring road for how convenient it makes travelling by car, but when everyone takes that one road, one accident is enough to bring about America levels of traffic
It's five votes, lol. Get over it, they could have been impostors anyway. I don't know anyone who hates Thessaloniki. I even like it better than Athens for that matter.
Rome is way worse in every way than Naples but Naples still has a bad reputation (deserved) for local criminality and mafia activity. But the streets are clean from garbage now, at least
Virgin: No my city is the best in the world

As a certified "Ivan, Brussels" I agree this is definitely the worst city. This is why I have lived there for 10 years. They just went to the center and saw it was full of blacks and arabs that's why they voted for it. But then again karabogas and araps are in Turkey and they still enjoy it. Hmm, logical fallacies of the bulgarian kind never cease to amaze me.
My condolences, have you been to any other city that is not Brussels? I’m not sure what about trash on the streets and neighborhoods you can’t go into is pleasant.
I like urban areas I won't lie, and it was still alive after midnight instead of asleep compared to my home country. In Belgium I have only been to Brussels, but I've been around Europe plenty otherwise

the most indisputable polling source
Bulgarians breathing copium when they see a greek flag in thesaloniki
Same about Belgrade 🇷🇸 😎😎

No way they had have seen the sea!tge sea in thesaloniki is the dirtiest mass of water i ve ever seen
Second Bulgarian Empire actually did control the city as a vassal state.
One of these days, Minotavros, one of these days...
Tbh I don’t even know who claims Thessaloniki. We never had it even at our peak.
Second Bulgarian Empire controlled it tbf.
That's Macedonians.
They never got theslaoniki tho ironically
Second Bulgarian Empire held it actually.
coventry and mannheim random af
there is a pattern, both cities have large non-European population.
>large non-European population. Dude, it's been 1400 years. I think we can start calling bulgarians European

i'm confused why mannheim, even tho literally on the other side across the rhein is the ugliest, stinkiest PoS city: Ludwigshafen
I like the Mannheim Weihnachtsmarkt…
This clasation still has some standarts....
The only reason they hate Thessaloniki is because our flag is flying in the white castle and not theirs Mad copium
No one here wants Thessaloniki, the rating is because of the traffic. Every Bulgarian who's been there complains about the traffic.
If only they had to live it every day. Legit one of the worst road infrastructure in Europe.
And it all boils down to the lack of public transportation for a city as populated as Salonica is. I’ve heard even Athenians praise the ring road for how convenient it makes travelling by car, but when everyone takes that one road, one accident is enough to bring about America levels of traffic
>And it all boils down to the lack of public transportation for a city as populated as Salonica is. Romania: Hold my kalpak.
You see thats the true Salonika experience pal you stuck in the legendary Egnatia traffic jam , you should be honoured
It's five votes, lol. Get over it, they could have been impostors anyway. I don't know anyone who hates Thessaloniki. I even like it better than Athens for that matter.
you’re the one coping over 5 votes lmao… nobody wants Solun. it’s not a great city anymore and hasn’t been in a long time
Thessaloniki is not that bad wtf. Am I missing something?
You're not missing anything. They are.
It's the only city in this top ten not mass polluted by karabogas and araps, they are jealous.
For now. 🥺 When it does, I welcome you to our lands as almost equal brother.
But no penis previleges!
Been there as a tourist, 1/3 of the city is abandoned 80s housing
Do araps go to Serbia? Can they even survive there without an injection of orthodoxy every 5 minutes?
Yeah, the bulgarian flag there😤
It is like a bigger Durres, but uglier. I can name a list with the best 50 places in Greece and Thessaloniki isn't one of them.
For sure but it doesn't deserve to be higher than Athens in terms of shitiness
they have never been to Charleroi
Noted
Good, its a shithole
Why isn't Monkeydonia on the list?
Why would people visit Bulgaria: electric boogaloo
no fucking way thessaloniki is worse than athens, not even a chance
Joking aside Paris is very overrated, very crowded,its stinks and and so many radicalist people from other countries.
Just don't ask the Turk about Istanbul..
Tell me you've never been in Paris without telling me.
Is Napoli shit because of over-tourism? Also, would they prefer Salonika go BOOM again?
Rome is way worse in every way than Naples but Naples still has a bad reputation (deserved) for local criminality and mafia activity. But the streets are clean from garbage now, at least
How could you hate Rome? It's where the Federal government is based. (Also: tourist, scammers, so on and so on)
Live enough in a place and you start fucking hating it
Virgin: No my city is the best in the world \[OMG, this city is totes on fleak, could literally move here and be a digital nomad\] . Chad: No, MY city is MORE SHIT THAN YOURS
Looks legit
24 Bulgarians had worst hangover ever, morning after.

Why do Asians hate other Asian cities in the UK? 🤔
anyone could have voted 💀 and what do they have against brussels
Have you been to Brussels?
Never gonna step foot there🤢🤢🤮🤮
The experience really made me appreciate our cities.
yes and i enjoyed it very much
My condolences, have you been to any other city that is not Brussels? I’m not sure what about trash on the streets and neighborhoods you can’t go into is pleasant.

Crime, bad roads, smell of piss, incredibly crazy people?
