It's not often there is no water int he main fountain feature in Yambol City Park. Hence the change of a close up of the statues there taken standing in the dried up moat.
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.

Vacant Statues in Yambol City Park
During Communist times in Yambol there were statues proudly standing here in Yambol City Park. Since this bygone age the stands are now vacant and remain a faint reminder of what was in this part of the world.

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.

The Yambol History Museum Statues
These are some statues that are placed outside the Yambol Historic Museum. They have a very plain look about them, but they seem to have personalities as you stare at them. Again, they stand in a very public place and accessable to everyone with no vandalism in sight.
