Activity itinerary

Damascena Ethnographic Complex

1h
Admission ticket included

Our day starts towards the Valley of the Roses - one of the symbols of Bulgaria. The journey is very scenic and follows the Balkan Range - the longest chain of mountains in Bulgaria. The rose oil is traditional here for centuries and there is a specific place with unique climate and soil where Rosa Damascena is growing. We will visit a traditional Rose distillery where we will find out more about the process of extracting the oil from the flowers.

Shipka Monument

30m
Admission ticket not included

We continue on a high mountain street towards the Shipka monument - a symbol of freedom for every Bulgarian and arena of epic battles during the Otoman period in the late 19th century.

Buzludzha Monument

1h
Admission ticket not included

Our adventure then will take us to Buzludzha - the cradle of the Communism in Bulgaria. The huge unique monument erected on the top of the Balkan Mountain, was officially open in 1981 personally by the dictator Todor Zhivkov. Today it is still a sacral place for the Communist party since the annually congress is traditionally held there. Besides this, it is such a magnificent landmark in the nature.
