welcome to Momchilovtsi, Bulgaria
"" There is an old legend that says God summoned all the peoples of the earth to give each of them a piece of nature's beauty. He wanted them all to have a share of his creation.
But it so happened that the Bulgarians turned up late and there was no earthly beauty left for God to give them ..... so God presented them with a piece of Heaven. ""And this is never more true than of Momchilovtsi.
Cradled in the arms of the magical pine forest and Chapels that surround it, hidden away high in the Balkan Mountains in Bulgaria and located in the heart of the one of the greenest and most picturesque Rhodope Mountains, lies the unforgettable village of Momchilovtsi.
The surrounding area boasts a favourable geographic location and the clear air and pure waters make it an ideal location to live in and a popular holiday location.
