South
Park
is
a
lusciously
green
patch
of
land
among
some
of
the
most
modern
neighboorhoods
in
the
capital
city
of
Bulgaria.
South
Park
covers
an
area
of
1,48
km².
The
project
for
this
park
was
accepted
and
developed
in
1972.
The
idea
of
the
project
was
to
create
a
park
that
works
as
an
extention
of
Vitosha
Mountain.
Visitors
can
find
proof
of
this
all
around
the
park,
as
it
has
numerous
different
terrain
forms,
untouched
forests
a
stunning
view
of
the
mountain
from
specially
designed
open
areas,
several
man-made
lakes
and
the
main
entrance
to
the
park
meets
the
end
of
Vitosha
Boulevard.
The
infrastructure
of
the
park
is
very
friendly
to
all
kinds
of
outdoor
activities,
as
there
are
plenty
of
paths,
which
are,
for
the
most
part,
very
well-lit
during
the
night,
several
playgrounds,
a
concert
stage
and
a
good
amount
of
benches
and
gazebos.
What
makes
the
park
unique
is
the
harmony
of
wild
and
cultured.
South
Park
is
a
favorite
plass
for
extreme
biking,
as
the
terrain
allows
for
various
tracks
and
jumps.
Walking
along
the
paths
and
alleys
of
the
park
visitors
will
also
notice
informative
signs
regarding
the
different
bird
species
that
inhabit
the
South
Park
right
next
to
wild
ducks
playing
in
a
pond.
The
park
is
alive
all
year
round
and
especially
in
the
spring
and
summer.
There
are
always
masses
gathered
there
as
the
trees,
fountains
and
ponds
provide
a
great
get-away
from
the
sun.
There
is
a
menagerie
of
small
fast
food
and
ice
cream
stands,
as
well
restaurants,
cafés,
stalls
for
cotton
candy
and
even
toys.
South
Park
is
also
the
host
of
the
annual
Flower
for
Gosho
festival.
Held
in
the
beginning
of
summer,
it
is
a
memorial
concert
dedicated
to
one
of
Bulgaria’s
most
beloved
rock
musicians
Georgi
Minchev.
On
one
of
the
alleys
neighbooring
the
stage,
there
are
always
inflatable
slide
castles,
trampolines,
bumper
cars
and
other
attractions.
There
is
a
train-like
vehicle
that
takes
visitors
on
tours
around
the
park
for
a
small
fee
and
departs
hourly,
One
can
also
rent
a
bicycles
and
bicycle
carts
to
roam
the
park
as
you
wish.
