It is nestled in the lap of the valley of Rila Mountains in the southern part of Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. The monastery is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the most visited tourist spot in the country.
Rila monastery is not merely a popular tourist site but more importantly a veritable cultural and historical icon of Bulgaria. It was constructed in 10th century and till date remains the world’s most renowned Eastern Orthodox monastery.
Art & Architecture:
Pamporovo is a ski resort in the southern Rhodope Mountains near the border of Greece. Summers and winters both offer a heavenly sight to the tourists here.
Another architectural and historical wonder in the wonderful capital city of Sofia is Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. Built in Neo-Byzantine style, it is regarded as one of the world’s largest Eastern Orthodox cathedrals.
Belogradchik enjoys a geographical location of being located in the foothills of the Balkan Mountains. It a small town that abounds in beautiful panoramas and eccentrically shaped stone blacks.
Pirin National Park is another UNESCO World Heritage Site in Bulgaria. It boasts of innumerable varieties of flora and fauna and an interactive exhibit dedicated to forestry and wildlife.
For adventure seekers, it provides great opportunities of hiking that go through beautiful trails full of craggy crevices and caves. If that doesn’t make you want to visit this place let me tell you that these trails go up to Vihren which is the highest peak and these trails also go around as many as 186 mountain lakes.
Bulgaria awaits you. When are you booking your tickets?
