Carpet Weaving in Bulgaria

Dear community,
There is one thing in common between the British royal family, dukes, politicians, wealthy families, and museums – they all step on beautiful carpets that are handmade in Bulgaria (detailed information in here).
In this issue of the Bulgarian Culture Corner, you will learn more about one of the oldest crafts in Bulgaria – carpet weaving, and where the most famous carpets are made in Bulgaria. You will also find out more about the Carpet Festival in Chiprovtsi, which you can attend this weekend (link to the FB page). Program of the festival (in BG) – here. General info in English can be found here.
Spring festivities in Bulgaria continue in May. If you would like to find out more about St. George’s Day, the Bulgarian nestinary celebrations and how the Bulgarian alphabet was created, follow this link.

Enjoy the beautiful spring in Bulgaria!

Yours,
The Bulgarian Culture Team
