Asenovgrad and Plovdiv- read from the bottom

The road- as u see not the most pleasent way of getting to the destination on foot




So decided to move into direction of Monaster but after some time I doubted, decided to go back and go with the road but due to heavy traffic it was also not very pleasant and possible and... I went back to Plovdiv :)





picture taken on ur own are nothing special...





It turned out to be a fortress - and this is what is about my two hours of climbing due to going off route etc. A little bit not what I expected but walking in the mountains - 1st spring days, nice weather, fresh air was worth it :)






Sth in the distance -1st thought what is it? this fortress? monastry or nothing??? hm...

So I decided that I want to see the fortress and monastry. According to the map it looked ok - first fortress later monastry and it all can be done within one day - so I went to Plovdvi - another waking up in the morning -6.30 I started waking up earlier during weekends that during working days. Train to Plodviv, managing to switch into one to Avsenogra- no signs for the fortress in the town so choosing direction basing on the map and next big town and... yes I got on track there was some small sing that this is direction of the fortress...
