Destacados

Rila Monastery is definitely a must-see if you are a tourist with a free day in Bansko. The arcaded balconies, the unique frescoes – a work of one of the most famous Bulgarian Revival Period painters, the gilded iconostasis, the fabulous mountain views… and the unique combination of them all makes the visit to the monastery extraordinary and memorable one. You will have at least two full hours of free time at the Rila Monastery to explore it for yourself, enter the main church and take photos of the narthex’s gallery, admire the exhibits in the History Museum of the Monastery, try the tasty mekitsi (Bulgarian donuts) with delicious buffalo’s milk (local specialty) or even have a short walk in the area.

About Bansko

Bansko is a mountain town at the foot of Bulgaria's Pirin range, with cobbled lanes of stone houses, taverns and one of the country's main ski areas.

Bansko lies in the Razlog valley in south-west Bulgaria, under the jagged peaks of Pirin National Park. The old town keeps lanes of stone houses with wooden balconies and high-walled yards, along with the Holy Trinity church, and the poet Nikola Vaptsarov was born here. Several traditional taverns, called mehanas, serve food in rooms of wood and stone.

Top-ranked sights in Bansko: Rozhen Monastery, Neofit Rilski Museum, Vihren Peak.
