BULGARIA IS UNDERRATED! Rila Monastery & 7 Rila Lakes 🇧🇬

[@DefinitelyAmberly]

I was in Bulgaria right after the fall of the wall, about 30 years ago I quess. I hiked in the Rila and Pirin mountains. At that time, there were no wooden fences at the 7 lakes. I came from the mountain right to the Rila monastery and slept there for one night. That vacation stayed in my mind as one of most beautifell vacation. The country, the nature, the food, and the friendly people made me want to come back. Which I did, I live in Bulgaria permanently.

In 2006 I traveled to Bulgaria to spend time with my then girlfriend who is from Sofia. One of the things we did was to go to the seven Rila lakes and camp. At that time there was no ski lift and we hiked all the way from the bottom. There was no one on the mountain but us at that time. We camped at the first Lake and drank more than our fair share of vodka that evening. The next morning the lake was like glass. Absolutely stunning. We continued to the other lakes and then made our way back down in a thunderstorm quickly. It's a great memory that I will never forget and although the place is more accessible now, it is also not the same as it was. All these years later we are married and have three kids and currently reside in Texas.

[@chrissickle6001]

Sorry, my mistake, it wasn't the first lake, just the first I remember. It was lake бъбрека, the kidney lake I believe.

Majority of us Brits sneer their nose up at Bulgaria because of the arrogance and snobbery towards Eastern Europe, which is ridiculous and embarrassing beyond belief - I feel very ashamed of Brits when they discredit this part of the world when many of them have never visited, and have no personal experience to form their own opinion. Personally, I’ve been exploring Bulgaria with my Bulgarian girlfriend for the past 5 years and the country is honestly stunning and beautiful. If you ever go back you should check out the Buzluga hike - it’s such an adventure! I’m going to head to Rila in a couple of weeks! Thanks for sharing this video and all the tips. :)

@@julikb actually in this case it is a good thing because once it starts to generate money for the local economy people will learn to respect it better. At the moment most of the population in Bulgaria prefers to go to Greece and elsewhere and everyone seems to be dumping trash in the lakes and rivers. So, yes let’s bring more foreigners to see the embarrassing things most Bulgarians do and maybe this would change their embarrassing behavior. Whoever makes KZbin series on the subject will gain a lot of publicity and followers because the people around the world do not appreciate animal and nature abuse.

[@nikolaistoyanov1720]

@@ke2delight ​I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm, but in the 1980s, our mountains were full of tourists from Eastern Europe. In those years, the tourist flow to Bulgaria was greater than now. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, groups of volunteers under the Bulgarian Tourist Union (BTU) carried out clean-up campaigns in Rila, Pirin, Vitosha, and the Stara Planina Mountains. Where international hiking routes passed. Then we collected a huge amount of cans originating from Poland, Czechoslovakia, the GDR, Hungary, and very rarely Bulgarian ones. There followed a period of about 25 years until 2019-20 when, according to local guides, the mountains were clean because there were few tourists. Mostly Bulgarian tourists were found in the mountains. In recent years, the influx has increased, especially in the area of ​​Musala, the Seven Lakes, Rila Monastery, and in northern Pirin. I have been in Bulgaria since last year. I walk in the mountains and I am already collecting cans and plastic packaging originating from the Western part of the Continent. They even predominate over the Eastern European and Bulgarian ones. I am horrified at the thought of what awaits us. Maybe we should close the national parks to freely wandering tourists and enter them only in an organized manner with a Bulgarian guide who is responsible for maintaining cleanliness. Otherwise, we will witness more and more acts of vandalism like the one of the Ukrainian animals, which, without any shame, bathed in groups on the seven lakes several times last summer. Не искам да ти убивам ентусиазма, но през 80-те години на 20 век по нашите планини беше пълно с туристи от източна Европа. В ония години туристическия поток към България беше по-голям от сега. В края на 80-те и началото на 90-те години групи доброволци по линия на БТС/ Български Туристически Съюз/ направихме акции за почистване на Рила, Пирин ,Витоша Стара планина. Там където минаваха международните пешеходни маршрути. Тогава събрахме огромно количество консервни кутии с произход Полша, Чехословакия, ГДР , Унгария и много рядко български. Последва един период от около 25 години до към 2019-20 когато в планините според местни гидове е било чисто защото туристите са били малко. По планините са се срещали предимно български туристи. През последните години напливът се засилва особено в района на Мусала , Седемте езера, Рилски Манастир и в северен Пирин. От миналата година съм в България. Ходя по планините и вече събирам консервни кутии и пластмасови опаковки с произход и от Западната част на Континента . Даже те преобладават пред източноевропейските и българските. Ужасявам се при мисълта какво ни чака. Може би трябва да затворим националните паркове за свободно блуждаещи туристи и там да се влиза само организирано с водач българин, който да носи отговорност за опазването на чистота. В противен случай ще ставаме свидетели на все повече вандалски актове като този на украинските животни , които без всякакъв свян миналото лято, на няколко пъти се къпаха групово на седемте езера.

Тях или малко сме ги били, или са си обикновени злобни западни дебили. Предполагам, че не добри изказвания за България сте чували на запад от Виена. Не обръщайте внимание! Цивилизацията свършва до Виена, до където се усеща българското цивилизационно влияние от времето на античността и средновековието. На Запад от Виена французите се опитаха да се цивилизоват през 18 век и стигнаха до великото откритие на доктор Гилотен за отстраняване на главата от тялото на човека. Гилотината стана символ. Толкова за цивилизоваността на запада! Народи, които в миналото са поставяли в робство други народи не могат да бъдат поставяни наравно с нас! Та те са със стотици , ако не и с хиляди години зад нас в цивилизационното си развитие и не знам с колко настрани. Ние да стоим на едно място , те да тичат, пак няма да ни стигнат защото ще минат някъде настрани от нас. Чипът им е сбъркан!

There wall literally a random cut-off on the mountain road where the decent weather ended and the snowy weather began. Our driver told us he'd never seen it happen at that time of year before, so he hadn't changed to winter tires.

Thank you for visiting Bulgaria. It looks like you had a great time! Looks like you saw quite a few sights, including our sometimes terrible roads. 😂

[@KeepGoingPlaces]

Thank you! Yes, gotta love the roads at times 😂 We enjoyed our time in Bulgaria 🇧🇬

[@btsfan7531]

Sometimes? They are bad all year round, they do a full repair of the highway and a couple years later, if even that, another full repair😂😂😂

Love the name. Keep going places is sooooo important, keeps expanding one's viewpoint of the world and makes the mind as open as it can get. Godspeed on your journeys!

[@maddiekoeplin6914]

That hike looks incredible!

[@KeepGoingPlaces]

It truly surprised us! Such a beautiful hike 🇧🇬

[@ingevansand9180]

It looks incredible indeed! How long did it take you to do the hike (circle)? Was it difficult because of the hight?

im Bulgarian and im so happy you are visiting our country!!

[@alexandernikolov8907]

Really well done, I was a tour guide before the corona and this video brings back memories for me, I used to visit the lakes quite often. I hope you had a great time exploring my country. Wish you all the best. 😊

[@vankowe6338]

You guys are amazing! Thanks for taking this journey and showing off the beauties of Bulgaria to other people. You could visit some other very interesting cities like Plovdiv, the old part of it. Or Nesebar, Gabrovo to see Etara and the beautiful Yantra river or enjoy the carnival that they do every summer, or Veliko Turnovo and the fort there. So many places to see and to go. Wishing you all the best, you are a lovely couple. Would love to see more videos from Bulgaria!

If you are searching for a a nice beach in Bulgaria,I recommend you Neseber(Несебър) or just go to Varna.A mistake that travelers make while going to Bulgaria is staying focused on the capital,There is much more!Also the nodding meaning is reversed.Thank you so much for visiting Bulgaria 🇧🇬!!! 😃

[@gabriela0000]

[@alexmoore4327]

Very well made video of your travel. I really enjoyed it, guys! I can also recommend the GRAYL bottle, which I noticed on the side of your backpack even before you mentioned it. I've been to the 7 Rila Lakes when I was a kid and now, after watching your video, I'd like to go there again.

[@Igorkocev]

I was there last week to both Rila Monastery and the 7 Lakes....Astonishing Beauty.. I am glad you got the experience the same all away from the USA.

[@lubomirteoharov7676]

Thanks for the video from my home country. It is not so "cultivated", but the experiences are real and unforgettable. Thanks for keeping nature clean. You are always welcome!

[@Shy0z]

Thx for visiting bulgaria you will be always remembered I hope you succeed in any dream I hope you the best❤️

[@federer911]

I've seen a lot of travel channels, but yours feels really genuine, i was smiling the whole video. I'm really happy you enjoyed our country, as a lot of foreigners have pre-conceptions, but almost always get turned around, when actually visiting Bulgaria. You have a new subscriber in me and i'm going back to see, what other adventures you guys have had. Stay safe and enjoy life.

[@BaiGrigorov]

I live in Bulgaria and here is a massage in Bulgarian: Добре дошли в България!

[@priyashinde6164]

I live in Dupnitsa, near Seven Rila Lakes, I was there yesterday and I saw a lot of foreigners going to see the lakes and the monastery, we even took two belgian guys in autostop going to the elevator from Sapareva Banya
