Another example of the the old Yambol where home are derelict and ripe for new developments. Eventually all these inner city houses will be gone and the new modern accommodation, shops or offices will stand in their place. Although these homes are an eye sore looking like this, they were someone's pride and joy years ago with land with vines and other organic homegrown produce. Such as shame this typical Bulgarian City home has gone to ruin.
Yambol is not the prettiest City in Bulgaria, but it does have a unique character which is now in the process of being captured by camera. What you see now in Yambol will be short lived in a world of change, especially with the EU strangling the heart and soul of Bulgaria's culture with directives and uniform regulations.

Derelict Homes in Yambol
Another example of the the old Yambol where home are derelict and ripe for new developments. Eventually all these inner city houses will be gone and the new modern accommodation, shops or offices will stand in their place.

That is a real shame. I can see in my mind what a nice place that used to be.
ReplyDeleteAnd it looks like it was a very handsome house back then.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope that the architects who will do those developments will retain whatever is distinctly Bulgarian in their designs. They're what make each country's or region's architecture so interesting even when they're 'modern.'
