The first stop of the day – Madara Horseman. This monument was recognized by UNESCO as part of world's historical heritage in 1976. This unique gravure is carved directly in the cliffs on a height about 25-30 meters above the path. In the area there can be seen several caves and old sanctuaries from different historical periods. On the top of the cliffs, there are remains of medieval fortress. The path to the top is a real challenge and it takes about 30 min walk to reach the fortress. Of course the views are more than breathtaking. Total time of walk with visitation of the fortress is 2h.

Our next stop will be called the Courtyard of the Cyrilic Alphabet with its collection of wax figures of some of the rulers of First Bulgarian khans and tzars, their clothes and armory and of course you can get to know closer the Cyrillic alphabet. In the court we will learn about the story of the Bulgarian literacy from its very beginning untill present times.
