With forefront of the Tundzha River and houses lines on the banks you can see the massive 'Zlaten Rog' apartment block complex. Many a time I have attended parties there and visited the Disco called 'Vermont which plays entirely Bulgarian Pop Folk (or Chalga) music. It looks impressive from a distance and although looks a long way away only takes ten minutes to walk there from this position.
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.

I don't understand why a Bulgarian disco would be called "Vermont." If the name is borrowed from the State of Vermont in the USA, I would expect Vermont to be an ice cream parlor. Vermont is a rural, pretty state with lots of cows, but it is not known for its night life.
ReplyDeleteI like the contrast between the apartment buildings and houses, nice shot.
