😐 Nice center piece. You need comfortable and low shoes. Do not walk on the stairs under the boxwood sign Plovdiv. Hundreds of broken glass, droppings, etc.

👍👍 Препоръчвам Ви да се обадите, за да запазите час за влизане с лекция. Така ще научите много повече и ще забележите неща, които могат да Ви убягнат. Отделете си поне два часа, за да се насладите на престоя тук. Още от стълбите към сградата ще бъдете посрещнати от големи конструкции и статуи. Вътре ще...

👍👍 Wonderful house of the Revival Period built in the symmetrical style and hosting the work of one if Bulgaria's most famous painters. 70 works are in display most of them focusing on peasant life in the realist style.

👍 I'd say the house is worth seeing, it's the biggest Revival Period house in town but the museum felt like something from the communist era propaganda book. I don't understand what the museum tries to be: regional history museum, art gallery, ethnographic museum.. It's all of those but less at the sa...
