City of Thousand Roses - Kazanlak, Bulgaria (part 1)

in #photography8 years ago

Hello everyone,

If you like roses and flowers in general, this post is for you.

Here are a few photos I've taken during the Rose Festival in Kazanlak (my hometown). Did you know 80% of the world's rose oil (from Rosa Damascena - oil-bearing rose) is produced in the Rose Valley of Kazanlak? I am proud of my city and hope more people can find about it and visit it one day.

If you like roses, check my other post here on Steemit with pictures from the annual rose festival in my hometown and follow me for more cool pictures :)

I am still learning photography and I do it for fun. Hope you like the roses below and drop a comment if you have any questions!

Rosa Damascena -
it requires very special climate to be able to provide quality rose oil ()
