Rhodope
mountains - the home of Orpheus
Unique nature phenomena in the Rhodopes
The
Rhodopes are mysterious mountains, which will never disclose all
secrets immediately. For that reason we are going to help and direct
you where to look for.
Travelling along the road connecting Plovdiv with the town of Smolyan
make sure not to miss "The Miracle Bridges" - some of
the most curious natural phenomena of the Rhodopes. They are natural
rock arches formed probably thousands of years ago following an
earthquake. It ruined an ancient cave, the water carried away the
rocks which had fallen and as a result two marble bridges of rare
beauty were formed side by side.
