They say that in Rhodope one can taste the immortality once the desire is strong enough. Here, on this land, the sunrise and the sunset, the heaven and the earth, the water and the wind make the reunion between men and gods possible. Even today, on the sides of this dignified mountain, the footsteps of Romans and Thracians resonate. Rituals and legends about the bewitching lyre of Orpheus and Dionysus’s Bacchanals come to life again from the ancient sanctuaries. The giants-pine-trees cast heavy, cool shades here. Cold brooks wash out the tracks of hooves, chime bells echo over the pastures, and high up the mountain, where the hills turn into pinnacles, the songs of the nymphs are roaming. For thousands of years, the natives lived in harmony with the nature. They have worshipped Mother Nature, they have read the weather with the aid of the sun and the rock, and they have discovered new, intact beautiful spots.
Kardzhali Region is about sharing the nature, the culture and the traditions. An experience that forever will be in your memory!
