In the new edition of the column "Feel Bulgaria with..."<\/strong> we meet you with Ivaylo Ivanov<\/strong> \u2013 a traveler and photographer who turns weekends into expeditions to the most beautiful corners of Bulgaria. Here's what Ivaylo tells us about his passion for rediscovering Bulgaria...<\/p>\n

I am Ivaylo Ivanov and for me, traveling is more than a hobby \u2013 it is a mission. I don\u2019t just visit places, I am a moment hunter who turns every weekend into an expedition to discover the hidden jewels of Bulgaria. Through my lens, I don\u2019t just capture landscapes, but I capture that magic and inspiration that you can only feel on the edge of Rila Mountain or while the sun caresses the Black Sea coast. I believe that the most beautiful corners are at your fingertips, and my Instagram profile is my map that leads to these treasures. I am ready to show you Bulgaria through my eyes!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the following lines, of course, we will virtually transport you to 5 great places, where Ivaylo will personally show us around. Here they are\u2026<\/p>\n

1. Natural Paradise in the Rhodope Mountains: Bachkovo Waterfall!<\/h4>\n

Did you know that just a short distance from the famous Bachkovo Monastery lies a natural gem? I'm talking about the majestic Bachkovo Waterfall!<\/p>\n

Legend and History<\/strong>
Although less well known than the monastery, the waterfall has its own charm. Its name comes from its proximity to the village of Bachkovo. It is believed that the area has been an important place since the Middle Ages. The waterfall is formed by a karst fault and is about 10 meters high! It is part of a beautiful karst region and is associated with local legends about the rock bridges that are located nearby. The view of the cascading waters falling from the rocks is simply breathtaking and energizing!<\/p>\n
