Map Production The present map shows basic topographic features such as transportation and hydrology and settlements in the area of Kilifarevo (Bulgaria). These basic topographic features are derived from public datasets, refined by means of visual interpretation of pre-event Pleiades image. All satellite images have been radiometrically enhanced and orthocorrected with RPC approach (using SRTM elevation data). The estimated geometric accuracy of this product is 7 m CE90 or better, from native positional accuracy of the background satellite image. The estimated thematic accuracy of this product is 85% or better, as it is based on visual interpretation of recognizable items on very high resolution optical imagery. Shadowed areas are zones of lower interpretation accuracy due to the poorer image radiometry.Only the area enclosed by the Area of Interest has been analyzed.

  • BULGARIA 2020 the MONASTERY CIRCUIT CYCLE TOUR Semi-Guided - 8 Days/7 Nights
    BULGARIA 2020 THE MONASTERY CIRCUIT CYCLE TOUR Semi-Guided - 8 Days/7 Nights Experience the hospitality of the Bulgarian Monasteries and its fascinating history on a bike, escorted by an English speaking guide/driver with a support vehicle throughout. This tour is not just a circuit of some of the most interesting Bulgarian monasteries, it is also a journey through Bulgaria's history. All of the featured religious buildings are monuments to what has happened in Bulgaria over the last 700 years or so. Along with the rich history you will enjoy the greenness of the mountains (“Balkana”) and admire its outstanding nature - beautiful waterfalls, caves, rock cliffs, forests, vast meadows, rivers and valleys combined with crop and potato fields. Bike along the central Balkan Mountains exploring many villages nestled among quiet valleys and beautiful green landscapes. It seems that time has stopped here and life is quiet and peaceful - people still use the horse driven cart, look after their small herds of sheep, goats and cattle, cut the grass in the old fashion way, take care of their small vegetable gardens or just sit in front of their houses and have a chat. TOUR HIGHLIGHTS ♦ Arbanasi village is famous for its massive houses that resemble minor fortresses, several monasteries and old churches ♦ Dryanovo Monastery “St Archangel Michael” - located in the gorge of Dryanovska River where limestone rocks rise high on all sides ♦ Tryavna has preserved its old town square, the only one left in the country, which has been proclaimed as a Monument of Architecture. ♦ Etura Open-air Ethnographic Museum - Master craftsmen fashion beautiful gold, silver, copper, leather and wooden articles right before your eyes from early morning until late at the night.

  • The Role of Bulgarian Monasteries in the Preservation of Culture
    Preservation of Soul and Spirit: The Role of Bulgarian Monasteries in the Preservation of Culture Objectives: A. The student will be able to explain the function of monasteries. B. The student will be able to identify the geographic location of significant Bulgarian monasteries. C. The student will be able to describe the contributions of Bulgarian monasteries. Overview The context for this curriculum unit could be in conjunction with such topics as medieval life in World History; Comparative Religion; or European studies in Global Studies. In World Geography, this unit could be used as a supplement to European studies; a stand-alone unit on the role of geography in creating sacred spaces, or perhaps an introduction to the connections between geography and culture. Depending on the course and make-up of the class, I would recommend introducing this topic by discussing monastic life. For that reason, included in this unit is a brief overview of monasticism. References for this section are found at the conclusion. Procedure 1) Students will locate Bulgaria on a world map and identify its borders. 2) Students will read Handouts 1-4 then discuss the accompanying questions. 3) Students will locate and mark the following monasteries on their maps of Bulgaria: Rila, Bachovo, Troyen. Extension As a culminating activity, students can brainstorm about what parts of their culture they would try to save, if threatened by cultural extinction. Help students to identify their culture(s) by asking questions about traditions, language(s), music, dance, etc. Students could then compile cultural narratives. For example, would certain works of literature be important to save? Which ones? How would students choose? How would students save these works? Handout 1 Monastic Life What are monasteries? Why do they exist? Who lives there? Some students may think first of Roman Catholic monks, dressed in robes, perhaps copying manuscripts, and living in tiny rooms.
