It never fails to amaze that many road signs are hand painting in Yambol City and bus stops are no exception. The style is very much of a child's picture of a bus, in fact I could have done just a good job and I am a completely talentless artist. the main thing is that everyone know it is a bus stop whether the picture is good art or not. Practicality takes the biscuit here, why commission fine art when child's art does exactly the same?
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.
