Kazanlak, Bulgaria - around town

Photos from around Kazanlak:





The market had all the usual fruits and vegetables, but also included a selection of hardware and livestock.

The area around Kazanlak is known as the Valley of Roses and is a major source of world rose oil production. Harvesting usually happens in May & June, and the city hosts a festival each year at that time. Although the commercial rose harvest is over for the year, we visited the Rose Museum where they explain the history of the industry.
