They have a nationwide clock change from standard time to daylight saving time, where the clocks are switched forward by 1 hour in summer.

Bulgaria has an east-west extension of 6.0 degrees of longitude. Given the country's location in Eastern Europe, this corresponds to about 490 kilometers. With this still relatively small extension, the course of the sun is only slightly different at different positions in the country. The position of the sun in the west of the country differs from that in the east by only about 24 minutes. This means the sun rises and sets 24 minutes later in the west than in the east.
