Bachkovo Monastery is located only about 10 km away from the largest unincorporated town in Bulgaria - Asenovgrad. A larger city is Plovdiv, which is located 25 km from the monastery. So, the distance we had to travel was not much.

Бачковският манастир е разположен само на около 10 км от най-големия необластен град в България - Асеновград. По-голям град е Пловдив, който се намира на 25 км от манастира. Така че, разстоянието което ние трябваше да изминем не беше много.

THIS SPECIES OF TREE IS WIDESPREAD DURING THE MESOZOIC ERA IN THE NORTHEN HEMISPHERE AND AT FIRST WAS KNOWN ONLY BY ITS FOSSILS. THE NATURALISTS BELIEVED THE TAXON HAS BECOME EXTINCT UNTIL 1944, WHEN THE TREE WAS FOUND IN THE REGION OF SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL CHINA (SICHUAN-HUBED). IT WAS CULTIVATED IN EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA A FEW YEARS LATER. THE TREE IS DECIDUOUS AND FAST-GROWING, CAN BE 200P (60 METERS) IN HEIGHT.

And the fact that we visit this place in autumn makes it even more beautiful. The trees wear different colours, the predominant ones being yellow, red and brown. Each time one sees a carpet in front of them.

А факта, че посещаваме това място през есента го прави още по-красиво. Дърветата носят различни багри, като преобладаващите са - жълто, червено и кафяво. Всякаш човек вижда един килим пред себе си.
The monastery complex consists of several churches, of which this one is the most emblematic and beautiful both outside and inside.
BG
Манастирският комплекс се състои от няколко църкви, от които най-емблематична и красива както отвън, така и отвътре е ето тази.
In it there is an icon of the Virgin and Child. If you search the internet for information about this icon, you will find that it is the one that is considered miraculous. Even today many people stood in front of it, sharing their wishes and praying to the icon to make them come true. We also prayed, mostly for health and prosperity.
BG
В нея е разположена икона на Богородица с Младенеца. Ако потърсите в интернет информация за тази икона, ще разберете, че именно тя се смята за чудотворна. Дори и днес пред нея бяха застанали много хора, които споделяха своите желания и се молеха пред иконата да им ги сбъдне. Ние също се помолихме, най-вече за
здраве и благоденствие.
The church is very rich in icons and frescoes. Right in the centre, at the highest point, is a painting of Jesus.
BG
Църквата е много богата на икони и стенописи. Точно в центъра, в най- високата точка е изрисуван Иисус.
After leaving the church we headed to the museum, which is located in another part of the monastery complex and to reach it you will need to climb stairs located near the refectory.
BG
След като излязохме от църквата се насочихме към музеят, който е разположен в друга част на манастирския комплекс и за да стигнете до него ще е необходимо да се качите по стълби, разположени в близост до трапезарията.
In this part of the complex there is another church and a dovecote. Unfortunately the museum was closed and we were not able to visit it. However, we promised ourselves to visit it the next time we come to Bachkovo Monastery.
BG
В тази част на комплекса има още една църква и гълъбарник. За жалост музеят беше затворен и не успяхме да го посетим. Обещахме си обаче следващия път, в който дойдем до Бачковския манастир да го посетим.
On the way out of the Bachkovo monastery, you will find a path which, after a short climb, leads to a small chapel from which the view is simply amazing.
No matter how exhausted you are I highly recommend you walk those 300 meters. It's definitely a place where you can capture unique shots. Our walk did not end there, on our way back to Asenovgrad we also visited Asen’ Fortress, which we will tell you about in tomorrow's blog.
BG
На излизане от Бачковския манстир, пред вас ще се открие една пътечка по която може след кратко изкачване да стигнете до малък параклис, от който гледката е просто невероятна.
Колкото и да сте изтощени силно ви препоръчвам да извървите тези 300 метра. Определено е място, на което може да заснемете уникални кадри.
С това нашата разходка не приключи, на връщане към Асеновград посетихме и Асенова крепост, за която ще ви разкажем в утрешния блог.
Your photos are top notch! Inside the church looks beautiful and the changing color of the tree leaves is really nice as well. Natural and man made beauty.
