You will find a memorial with a little seating area and garden in front of the Turkish Mosque that sits in the centre of Yambol. Not often used by locals, maybe because of the other numerous seating areas in the city and away from reminders of Ottoman Rule.
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.

Musli Graffiti Found on Ebu Bekir Mosque in Yambol - Not Breakfast!
At first I wondered why someone would put graffiti with a bad spelling of a healthy breakfast on the Ebu Bekir Mosque in Yambol. then I realised it is really means muslim, yet still curious as to why a label is needed on the mosque.

Ebu Bekir (Eski Cami) Yambol's Ottoman Mosque
This is another view of Yambol's Ottoman Mosque that stands just off the centre of the City. A reminder of the Turkish rule not too long ago. It is still used by the Turkish Muslim minority in Yambol..
