Every year Georgi Rakovski is remembered in Yambol and a wreath is put up by his bust on the local library wall. This year is no exception.
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.

USA '94 Remembered on a Yambol Wall
Not sure how long this has been around but USA '94 is there for a very good reason. Can you guess? World Cup football took place with Bulgaria beating Germany 2-1 in the Quarter Final. Bulgaria's finest moment in International Football.

Georgi Rakovski Remembered - Not Just in Yambol
Georgi Rakovski is remembered here in this image with some flowers in Yambol. He also has a street named after him. Just a little background. He was was a 19th-century Bulgarian revolutionary, freemason, writer and an important figure of the Bulgarian National Revival and resistance against Ottoman rule. He died in Bucharest after leaving his mark in Bulgaria's history. As always, Bulgarians have pride in their history and are reminded in pictures, statues and plaques, not just in Yambol but in most if not all Towns and Cities in Bulgaria of their influential forefathers.
