A picturesque small country called Bulgaria has existed for more than 13
centuries in Europe,
linking
East and West. Bulgaria remembers ancient civilisations and great
people that wrote
its turbulent history.
Situated in Southeastern Europe, Bulgaria occupies the northeastern
part
of the Balkan Peninsula.
The Bulgarian lands have rich and most diverse cultural heritage.
Inhabited since prehistoric times, they keep lasting traces from
different ages with rich traditions. Their location on a crossroads
explains the intertwining, mixing, the mutual influences of the culture,
mores, and religions of tribes and peoples, having lived and
crisscrossed the region. Getting in touch with the thousands of cultural
messages, bequeathed to us by those living before us is very exciting
indeed. Invaluable is the cultural and historical heritage of ancient
Thracians, Greeks, Romans, of generations of Bulgarians leaving through
their achievements intriguing and useful information about their
lifestyle, traditions and their spiritual enlightenment.
