Foreigners, arriving to Bulgaria at the Kalotina border checkpoint (the closest to the capital Sofia), will be given free of charge maps featuring 500 historical and cultural sites across the country, by order of Sofia District Governor Olimpy Kutev. In addition, guests from abroad will be also handed out special leaflets, written in eight different languages, informing them that one is fined 10 levs for throwing pieces of paper or packs or glass in the immediate vicinity of the roads around the Kalotina border checkpoint. Fines of 15 levs each will be imposed on people walking their dogs and cats on the premises of the checkpoint. Three commandants with special badges will see to the cleanness of Kalotina, thus the authorities hope to make a better first impression for people entering Bulgaria.
