Welcome to the beautiful and hospitable Rhodope Mountains.
Since ancient times they have been a source of legends and
stories told through the centuries. This is the cradle of
the mythical singer Orpheus. Here was born the song which,
together with Beethoven’s 9th Symphony, flies
through space, looking for contact with alien intelligence.
Magnificient pine forests, green meadows and mountain peaks
bathed in sunlight – these are the incredible Rhodope
Mountains you will never forget. Not will you forget the
Rhodope the Rhodope people – their hospitality and the
delicious dishes they will make especially for you. The
mountain people will meet you with open arms, will sing you
the songs they grew up with, and will say goodbye to you as
though you were their best friend.
“ The one that sings
bears no evil” is an old Bulgarian proverb. And all the
Rhodope’s people sing – that is why goodness, peace and
tranquility is in their souls.

the Bulgarian mountain resorts, nests in the heart of the
