In already beautiful Bulgaria, there is a truly gorgeous mountain town called Smolyan, pretty close to the Greek border. There, you can hike up into the mountains at a place called The Canyon of the Waterfalls. The following are a few pics from my trip there a couple of springs ago.
In this pic, I especially love the colors and the reflections.
Lots of interesting formations, of course.

Nice place to relax.

Let it flow ...
Snaggly and craggy ... Reminds me of Castle Crags in California.
Well, that's it folks. Hope you like our little jaunt around Southern Bulgaria. Sayonara and ciao за now!
