Bulgarian Sights May 2013




As we were driving between cities we were able to stop at these rock formations called The Rock Forest.  Many of the rocks looked like columns from ancient ruins.  The Madara Horseman was carved into a cliff.  The warrior is spearing a lion and is followed by a dog.  It was early 8th century.  We climbed the 373-step staircase to the top of the mountain to see the ancient fortress.
