CLOSE TO NATURE
In the Eastern Rhodopes, there are many spots where
you will feel yourself close to nature. This section
of the mountain is wonderful. Here you’ll find countless
breathtaking views, an omnipresent verdure; picturesque
coves, stony deserts, flowery waterfalls and everything
that makes us smile blissfully and calm down after our
hurried and noisy everyday routine.
There’s a little and a lot of everything in the Eastern
Rhodopes. There is no other place in Bulgaria boasting
such biological variety. Rare and protected plant and
animal species you’ll find here in great profusion –
grasses, flowers, herbs, shrubs and trees, birds, reptiles,
amphibians and mammals. Here sundry water bodies abound:
rivers, lakes, dams, creeks, runnels etc. Picturesque
cliffs, with niches carved in them, give way to rotund
peaks with rock temples, whole cities cut into the rocks,
each one reminding us of the rich past of this region.
In this “land of rock men”, as archaeologists have called
it of late, you will find the calmness and balance you
thought you’d lost for good. |
