The Balkan Peninsula, a land of rich history and diverse cultures, offers a captivating blend of traditions and landmarks. In Sofia's National Gallery Kvadrat 500, one can admire the mesmerizing Rachenitsa Dance captured in Ivan Mrkvicka's masterpiece from 1894. Meanwhile, in Belgrade stands the majestic Sveti Sava Orthodox Church, proudly claiming its title as the world's largest Orthodox church. Venturing into Macedonia, Ohrid beckons with its enchanting sights. The ancient Sveti Jovan at Kaneo Church transports visitors back to the 13th century while Lake Ohrid glistens under the morning sun, casting a spellbinding reflection. In Kosovo's capital city Prishtina, an aerial view reveals Boulevard Mother Teresa bustling with life and energy. It serves as a testament to progress and growth within this vibrant region. Delving into local delicacies brings us to Romania where Brasov boasts Mici sausages - tantalizingly tasty and spicy treats that are sure to satisfy any food lover's cravings. And let us not forget Bulgaria's winter solstice festivities adorned with Bulgarian kukeri masks worn by dancers who bring joy and merriment during this special time of year. Political satire takes center stage in Sofia where T-shirts featuring Vladimir Putin add a touch of humor amidst historical surroundings. Speaking of statues, Georgi Chapkanov’s Statue of Sveta Sofia stands tall as Saint Sophia watches over her beloved city. Bulgaria also pays tribute to Nikola Piccolo through his statue; an esteemed scientist and philosopher whose contributions continue to inspire generations. Veliko Tarnovo showcases General Gurko street – the oldest street brimming with charm emanating from its well-preserved old houses. Finally, Bucharest unveils St. Nicholas Orthodox Church adorned with golden domes that shimmer against the sky – an architectural marvel that leaves visitors awestruck.
