Local craftsmen present handmade works along the so-called Street of Crafts in Bulgaria's town of Troyan in the Balkan Mountain. The municipal authorities provided the local artisans with a terrain for their stands as a form of support amid the coronavirus crisis.

"In the big stalemate, this is a small ray of light for us - to give people the opportunity to see we did during the quarantine," commented one of the master craftsmen.

During the state of emergency, the craftsmen creating handmade items had no sales, but with the easing of measures such events provide them with a means of surviving during the crisis.
