Malkata Zvezda Wine Cellar was founded in 2005 by Dr. Stefan Angelov and partners at a place called “Malkata Zvezda” (The Small Star – crossroads of old Roman trade routes). The cellar is small with modern equipment and has underground rooms for maturing and aging the wine, as well as a unique atmosphere for guests wishing to feel the “magic of wine”.<\/p>

Since 2015 oenologist Svilen Georgiev has been responsible for the production. He contributes to the modern feel of their wines by applying modern vinification methods all the while respecting the traditions.<\/p>

The winery has 160 decares of their own vineyards located in the region of the winery, from the sorts Merlot, Cabernet and Pamid. They are located on the southwestern slopes of Sakar mountain in the 8000 decares Kolar vineyard which is one of the largest in Bulgaria.<\/p>

The winery is part of the region’s well known 4 x 4 wine tour and is open for visits and tastings but only if you have made a booking in advance.<\/p>

Perperikon is the largest ancient and sacred city in the Balkans. It is carved from stone, hence its name, which is associated with the Thracian stone god Per. It is located on the Perperikon hill of the same name in the Eastern Rhodopes, 15 km northeast of Kardzhali. In the eternal city are the remains of the sanctuary of the god Dionysius with the famous altar of predictions. It has often been compared to the magnificent Temple of Apollo at Delphi. In the past, the area was a rich source of gold, from which the Perpera gold coins were minted.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The stone mushrooms are rock formations located right by the village of Beli Plast on the side of the road connecting Kardzhali with Haskovo. The protected area is around 3 hectares. They have been declared a natural landmark since 1974. The rock formations have the shape of natural mushrooms – their stumps are pink and their caps are greenish.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The museum centre “Thracian Art in the Eastern Rhodopes” is located in the immediate vicinity of the Alexandrov Tomb. A highlight of the exhibition hall of the museum centre is the exact copy of the original tomb of Alexander. Through the replica, visitors are given the opportunity to get acquainted with a truly unique monument of ancient art in Thrace. The rich exposition also shows numerous artefacts from the Thracian period in the region of the city of Haskovo, a large part of which can be seen in the frescoes of the Alexander Tomb – weapons, jewellery, dishes, etc.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
