Surva, Pernik

By the end of January, I highly recommended that you visit Surva in Pernik (a town near Sofia)

The emotions are really positive. You will see a lot of people with masks from their region.

For more information, please visit   http://en.surva.org/

Folklore groups from all over the world come in Pernik.

Personal advice for photographers:

• Be on time – the city is full of people and cars
• There is a train Sofia-Pernik, Pernik-Sofia
• Usually, it is very cold. Sometimes it snows
• Be well dressed in winter shoes, gloves etc.
• Take all batteries that you have
• A lot of photographers are there, observe the professional etiquette
• Don’t miss to taste everything
• Enjoy

Personal advice for visitors:

• It is better to go by train
• The number park places are limited
• Stay in a sunny place
• Some small children are afraid of the masks
• Keep in mind that there are many restaurants where you can warm up or drink some tea. 
• Also, there are many places from where you can buy souvenirs.
