"Its a huge area full off trees and flowers. I think the best time to visit it is June. I was tgere begining of August and as summwr was very hot and dry untill that time, all looked prety poor, flowers didnt bloom much, I didnt see many butterflies or bees. Id say the place needs better maintenance too. As it was so hot and dry, plants needed moe watering. It looked like it didnt get enough. Also all could be done nice, more inviting, that is missing there. Seems thay get parties inside the garden as I saw confetti laying around. It should be forbiden im my opinion as its trash which is not cleaned there (as in many places in Bulgaria).
The entrance road is so bad, that I missed it first time, couldnt believe it was there 😳
Lack of advertisings, not easy to find a place if you dont know it, even if its just by the road 😳
Anyway, I will go back there next June and hope to be more satisfied of it 🤞🤞
PS: tickets for the enteance and parking are bought togerher."
