Helloo,
At this moment I have a bit free time to write a new
article for the blog. Bulgaria is really beautiful. In the future I will come
more to this country.
We have travelled already from Apriltsi to Batoshevo.
Nearby the Batoshevo monastery we had a picnic in the yard. The next milestone
was the town of Gabrovo. There we had meet a guide who took us by car to the “Etura”.
The Etura is an open air ethnographic museum. One of the most beautiful Monasteries.
On day 5 we rode from Gabrovo to Bzoshentsi. After an
ascent followed by a descent, we arrived in Tryavna. There we spent some time sightseeing
and enjoyed a lunch in the centre. We visited also the Bozhentsi architectural
reserve.
On day 6 we visited the Dryanova monastery in the
morning. After that we started cycling from Yalovo. We made a short stop at the
Kilifareve Monastery and continued to the town of Elena which is some 48km from
the start and from the final destination.
Yesterday we continued cycling to the last point of
the trip, the Arbanasi architectural reserve. The landscape includes meadows,
pastures, cultivated lands, shrubby hills and finally a beautiful plateau over
Velika Tarnovo. After a few walks among the old houses we went for a lunch and
sightseeing tour in Veliko Turnovo. That is one of the old capitals of
Bulgaria. In the afternoon we transferred to Plovdiv for overnight.
At least I will give you some general information
about the country. The total area of Bulgaria is 110,994 kilometers. That ranks
it as the world’s 105th-largest country. Like a mentioned before,
Bulgaria have several beautiful topographical features: the Danubian Plain, the
Balkan Mountains, the Thracian Plain and the Rhodope Mountains the climate is
temperate with cold winters and hot summers.
I think everybody knows the Kyoto Protocol. I will
explain it in a few words: the Kyoto Protocol aimed at fighting global warming.
Bulgaria adopted the Kyoto protocol; they completed the protocol’s objectives
by reducing carbon dioxide emissions from 1990 to 2009 by 30%.
Bulgaria is a parliamentary democracy. The most
powerful position is that of the prime minister. In 2011 Rosen Pleveneliev was
elected to succeed Parnanov. Bulgaria is a unitary state. That means that it is
a state governed as one single unit in which the central government is supreme
and any administrative divisions exercise only powers that their central government
chooses to delegate.
Today we will travel to another country. I hope I’ll
see you soon!
