Join us on a guided trip to one of the most iconic communist monuments in Eastern Europe. The UFO-like abandoned building is located on top of Buzludzha Peak (1441 m) in the Central Balkan mountains. Today an empty structure stripped of its initial purposes, it has gained many admirers and popularity around the world and is considered a remarkable representation of this part of history. Another highlight of this day trip is the wonderful Ethnographic Complex of Damascena where you can learn more about the production of the famous Bulgarian rose oil. A third stop will be the Orthodox Russian-style church near Shipka town.
