Etar


"Etar" is a very beautiful architectural ethnographic complex in Bulgaria and also, one of my favourite places on Earth. It was some kind of a ritual for me and my family to visit it once a year and it brings the sweetest memories now.
"Etar" is a place full of workshops, where craftsmen are manufacturing different products before your eyes (pottery-making workshop, cutlery, coppersmithery, bakery) and thus you can observe the ancient technology and original instruments that have been used in the past. Lazar was pretty amused by hand-made (and super sharp) knives and I... well... I just couldn't wait to taste my favourite sugar flowers again!

Have a wonderful day!
