Monument to Petko and Pencho Slaveikov.
In the center of Sofia there is a square known as Slaveikov Square.
In fact, he bears the name of Petko Slaveikov – Bulgarian poet, publicist, folklorist and politician.
A notable person of the 19th century! He actively participated in the creation of modern Bulgaria.
Next to him, the man with the hat is his son – Pencho Slaveikov.
He is the youngest son of the poet and politician Petko Slaveikov.
They are one of the founders of contemporary Bulgarian prose and poetry.
Until recently, there was a year-round outdoor book market on this square, where both new books and older editions could be purchased.
Thanks for this post. I am glad that you get to know the people of the world here virily with sights from Bulgaria.
I try to make the most of our culture!
love the picture, thank you for the information. I learned something new today!!!
We have quite a rich history. As a country, we are perhaps the oldest country in Europe – over 1300 years old.
that is incredible. You are right to be proud of your country!
I try to present her at least with photos 🙂
I admire statues in parks. One such place was London with the Trafalgar Square.
Thinking about it … I almost never saw a park without a monument in our city!
