Devin - the heart of the Rhodope Mountains The town of Devin is nicknamed the heart of the Rhodope Mountains, not only because of its central location, but because of the living, which keeps on renewing again and again through the constant movement of extremely clean air and water. Just like the heart in a human body, the city has the same function in the Rhodope Mountains, beating and recharging people with positive energy and pumping out any bad feeling. And this whole purification process is due to the healing properties of the rich mineral water. Devin is one of the cities in Bulgaria and the Balkan Peninsula with the most healing mineral springs. There are 4 hydro-thermal springs - Devin deposit, Posestra locality, Bedenski bani and Mihalkovo village. The water from the village of Mihalkovo is naturally carbonated water. The city is nestled in a majestic mountain amid the cool pine forests and when one crosses the border falls into an atmosphere of harmony, balance, freedom and purity, for both mind and body. Here the time seems to have stopped, and a blissful sense of weightlessness is carried. As you enter the city, following the path just right, one has the opportunity to explore all the sights without deviating. Having absorbed enough of the intoxicating air in the city itself, there will inevitably be a need to continue and find out what lies at the end of the road. Then, heading towards the end of the city and the natural scenery begins, there is a locality named Lacka, which is reached by beautiful wooden bridges over the river Vacha on one side and the other by rocks. It is difficult to describe the sense of rapture that easily captivates even the most avid travelers. And here at the end of the path you reach the purest energy of the Rhodopes! All this only 198 km from Sofia, 87 km from Plovdiv, 35 km from Pamporovo and 45 km from Smolyan. Landmarks As remarkable as it is for the guests of the city, it is so normal for the residents of the city. This is one thing that greatly impresses and amazes visitors, namely the fact that mineral or spring water flows from every fountain in the city. When you enter a restaurant or coffee without hesitation you can order a glass of tap water, because the difference with the one in the bottle does not exist. Natural resources are not neglected either. There are many scenic routes for tourists to enjoy. The most popular, of which is "On the Bridges", is what the locals call it, because it is precisely this - wooden bridges that curl on the rocks above an excited creek. At the end of this path you will come to a huge meadow. The area is called Kaleto. From there you have the opportunity to head to the wide waterfall without a name, but with feeling. If you are leaving, not to reach the end, but to enjoy the journey itself, you can stop at dozens of small places, rocks, gazebos, tunnels and waterfalls. One of the most picturesque waterfalls in the area is the Samodivsko Praskalo, which is the source of legends for the wooden nymphs who lived in the area. If you are a fan of coziness, on the way to the bridges you can immerse yourself in the mineral pools of the Struilitsa Complex, situated amidst a clean and spotless forest idyll. In the other direction, you have the opportunity to climb high and look at the beautiful wooden tower above the town, located in Cherven Kamak locality. It completes the Hrastovo eco-trail, which is built from hundreds of steps. The tower itself is 5.6m high and the level of the observation deck is 2.5m. The walk there is no more than an hour with normal walking. In addition to the natural landmarks in the city, Devin's guests have the opportunity to visit the surrounding natural phenomena: the Devil's Throat in Trigrad, the Yagodina Gorge in the Village of Yagodina, the Devil's Trail in the Village of Borino, the Eagle Eye and many natural beauties and landscapes. In addition to the natural sights, the picturesque Rhodopean village and the Shiroka Luka architectural reserve of the same name are a 20-minute drive away. The old houses are in the typical Rhodope architectural style - two-storeyed, with an internal wooden staircase. Most rooms are wide, with wooden porches adjacent to the walls and small windows. The most famous among the houses are the Grigorovska House, the Sgurovska and the Uchikovskata. In the village there is also the house of Captain Petko Voivoda, which was his headquarters after the Liberation. In addition to its remarkable architecture, Shiroka Luka is also known for its Rhodopean music, which has evolved here over the centuries and with its songs, accompanied by bagpipe. The village is home to the National School of Folk Arts, opened in 1972. Every first Sunday of March, Shiroka Luka hosts an annual Kuker Festival called "Pesondelek". Many Rhodopean songs are sung on this day and people celebrate. Activities in Devin Devin offers his guests activities defined by the terrain as cycling, horseback riding, off-road jeeps and buggies, rock climbing, but the best you can indulge in are long nature walks that have a lasting and rewarding experience and influence for body and mind. If you are a fan of fishing, you can indulge in your hobby at the picturesque Vacha Lake near the city. You have the opportunity to rent a cottage in the dam itself or just a boat and spend the day with yourself or with friends fishing. If fishing is not your thing, you can pick up a water wheel and cross the whole lake, admiring the nature that surrounds it. The best places to eat in Devin. For breakfast or just coffee you will feel the most enjoyment at Restaurant “Pri Krasi”, since besides delicious traditional breakfasts you will enjoy the view from the terrace. And for a greater variety of flavors, you can also go for Soup-Moupe, where you can try all kinds of cream soups, as well as the traditional lamb soup accompanied by incredible Rhodopean pearls. When it comes time for dinner and the mood rises, you can indulge in not only the delicious Italian specialties at Don Antonio's Restaurant, but also in live music for a heartbeat that plays to every heart. You can also listen to live music at the restaurant ”Barrels”, where the food will fascinate you, and the atmosphere will bring you to another time when the girls and the boys on the seats just saw each other and the choir approached. And if you decide to spend a glass of wine, it's a good idea to visit the Mountain Bar and immerse yourself in blissful cosiness while listening to muted music. You can easily find the right place for you by stopping and asking someone. You will be immediately explained in the warmest and most descriptive way to find the exact location of a restaurant. But do not worry most of the places we have listed are about 700 meters away, and from any other point in the city centre.
