Abstract: The article presents some issues, connected with megapolises as contemporary agglomeration formations of a new type. There is pointed out the role and significance of economic relations and interdependencies for the acquisition of highly urbanized territories around the world. There is also noted the inv estment attractiveness of megapolises in conditions of internationalization and globalisation. There are drawn the territorial, demographic, social and transport problems of megapolises. There is taken into consideration the impact of European urbanization processes over the socio - economic development on the territory of Republic of Bulgaria. As the basis for the analysis there are used the cross - border European transport corridors and the part European capitals play in that process. There are identified th e future urban corridors as well as the emerging tourist settlement agglomeration along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast.
