The Speaker of the National Assembly Natalia Kiselova will today award the winners of the 32nd Children's Easter Festival in the Serbian town of Bosilegrad. The children will compete in three categories – for the strongest, most beautiful and most original Easter egg.
Natalia Kiselova will visit the photo exhibition “Bosilegrad before and now”, congratulate the participants in the festival and observe the finals of the Easter egg fight. She will also meet with the Chairman of the Bosilegrad Cultural and Information Center Ivan Nikolov.

Later, the Parliamentary Speaker will visit the first monastic school in the Bosilegrad region in the village of Izvor, as well as the St. Trinity church built in 1835.

The Bulgarian National Assembly has been a partner and friend of the Easter Festival for years, which has established itself as a symbol of cultural connection and preservation of Bulgarian identity abroad.
