  My father lived there for several years in the 90s while teaching at the new American University. The city is pronounced "Blah-go-ehv-grad". He loved the people. He asked that we put on his headstone, "He spoke a little Bulgarian". He doesn't have a headstone, but the quote made it into his obituary. Hope that sufficed.

  When we were there in the mid-nineties, Bulgaria was painfully struggling from the boot of communism. When we went to a restaurant, they would hand us a menu, but the answer to our orders everywhere we went was "Nyama" - there isn't any. Tripe soup was always available then though.

  I don't know if you noticed but the groups from Eastern Bulgaria (mostly those that you said look like birds) are dressed in traditional female clothes in addition to the masks. These groups also have the "priests", the "bears", the wedding procession and the seeding and plowing rituals. Obviously, it's not real priests, it's for fun and a little bit of good natured mocking of the religious organization and everything else. Some groups have the policeman as a character, others a politician, etc. I always find so funny how the guys chose the biggest and burliest man to play the bride 😂

And we saved even 20000 italian soldiers from the german nazis just becouse they were left here in our land our home , even though italians invaded us right before the germans . Can u imagine French ppl helping 20000 germans after what they did in France.... Anyway , i hope i didnt bored you , i said it all so that u know something about the ppl too...wish u the best .

  Don’t make the same mistake others make. Berta predates the ottomans by millennia and as a matter of fact there is not one record that shows ottomans built one city during their occupation but tried to destroy everything they could. These are Albanian cities and towns built by Albanians and not ottomans. I have never heard of ottoman architecture. Constantinople was not built by ottomans. Ottomans copied and added to it over the years. People post garbage online!!!

Any way i am sure 1000 % owr country is not big but it' s 1000 more safe then America. Those are historic builduings if you want only new buidings stay in America. Those buildings have a history.

  Great videos on Albania. On the subject of food in Albania, it is a small country that it was closed to the world for 45 years and has been poor for so long, unlike Greece. During communism, again for 45 years, eating out was not an option, it was considered bourgeoisie (in the Marxist context not in the normal meaning) and restaurants were very few in number. During the last three decades things have changed drastically but restaurant scene still has to catch up with the home cooking level of the Albanians, in the variety aspect. They find it hard as locals still don't prefer to eat out and tourists stick to things they know, like pizza/souvlakia/pasta, even though Albanian veggie dishes are very healthy and tasty. If you want to try local food you have to go to "gjelltore" where locals go, not in restaurants that cater to tourists.
