What To Expect

Rock Monastery St. Dimitar Basarbovski

A stone monastery like none other you have ever seen, you absolutely must visit the Basarabovo Monastery, just a few steps past the Bulgarian border.What makes this place so special is a series of stone carved chapels and cells, 30 meters above the ground. And that is not all. The churches’ interiors used to bear painted frescos, but only a few of them have had their murals survive to this day.
