July Morning in Bulgaria

in #photography6 years ago

July Morning is an annual Bulgarian festival, which is celebrated on the night before and the day of July 1st of each year. Interestingly the festival is unique to Bulgaria, but it is not universally observed in the country. In the days before 1st of July, people from across Bulgaria travel to the Black Sea coast to meet the first sun rays on the first day of July. People gather around fires, play music, have fun and wait for the sunrise. There is no mandatory ritual or rite for this tradition and it is up to participants' discretion how they spend the night before July 1st. On many locations at the sea, there are concerts with professional and amateur bands. Camping at the locations of choice for the July Morning celebration is also very popular.
