Bulgaria Is Beautiful #19. The Magic Of The Rodopha Mountain

As I have mentioned in my other #BulgariaIsBeautiful posts, the nature in my country is extremely variable. From the highest peak on the Balkans (Musala located in Rila mountain), to the countless rivers and mineral springs, the Black sea, the valley of Roses and many more. I couldn't be more grateful for having the opportunity to experience them all.

Rodopha mountain; however, is always different. It leaves a mark in my heart for a long time and the longing to go back never ends. Apart from its amazing nature, reminding fairy tales, it has a powerful energy like no other. The trip which you are about to experience will only show what can be seen with the eyes, hopefully you will get to feel at least a small part of the energy as well.

Not too long ago I went to an epic birthday party in Ravno Bore hut. Took my train from Pernik at 6PM, arrived in Sofia in 7PM, where a friend took me with his car to Varvara village. We arrived there at 9:30PM and had to hike an hour and a half to the hut. At 11:00PM we arrived and had a welcoming. Had a great time and on the other day I hurried to take a walk to a so called "Jah Place", to take some pictures for you steemanians!

The walk starts from the hut.

“And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul”
― John Muir

Just after no more than a five minutes walk, something drew me to a hill which was not in my direction. Coincidence or not, got to a three like no other that I have seen before. It was hollow from the inside and looked like it was built from many thick trees, but it was definitely one. This is how its base looked from the inside. Just like a gate to another world.

Made a video to give a better idea of the uniqueness of it.

The left one is a view from the outside and the right from the inside. This is some piece of art!

Enjoyed the three's grace and continued with the walk. I went alone and it was a bit scary, as I was not sure of the direction.

This view made me feel like in Lord Of The Rings. Too bad no elves were around.

Almost there!

Here we are! Looks like flying, feels like sitting on the edge of the world.

Let me show you a wider view of the place. It seems there was a sanctuary there long ago.

I just love the game of the clouds and the sun rays.
It was just breath taking.

Wherever I turned to, the view was marvelous.

This was my second time visiting Jah place and I wanted to see more of the area, so the walk had to continue. The direction was to those rocks on the last picture.

This is where the exploration ended. At a rock which looks like a human profile. The week before that I saw another rock witch looked like an entity. They inspired me to write this post
