Autumn landscapes from Koprivshtitsa

Koprivshtitsa, a small town in Sredna Gora Mount on Topolnitsa Rover, is a remarkable unique historical reserve.

With its cobblestone streets, its brightly coloured houses with airy porches and overhanging awnings, and its high-mountain views, it offers truly magnificent sites. On weekends tourists throng to the town from all over Bulgaria, and autumn is particularly alluring here with its autumn hues and incredible views.
