A new cultural and historical park has opened on the shore of the city lake in Pravets, as it extends on over 14 decares. The "Bulgaria Land" offers a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the Bulgarian heritage, presented on a reduced scale. There are models of 54 significant Bulgarian historical buildings and natural landmarks. Some of the models are supplemented with sound and interactive elements that make the experience even more impressive.
Among the most notable models is the large-scale model of Tsarevets in Veliko Tarnovo, created in a scale of 1:25, with impressive dimensions of 36 by 34 meters and a height of 6 meters. This is the first model construction of its kind, in which one can enter and view an exhibition in its interior, its creators say.
The new attraction also offers reconstructions of ancient and medieval settlements, archaeological sites and traditional crafts, which represent life and culture in different historical eras. The park has recreation areas, playgrounds and venues for various events. The idea for "Bulgaria Land" came from director Sunny Suninsky, who plans to place models of new buildings in the park, "in order to show respect to modern architecture".
