PERNIK

Pernik is a successor of the medieval town of Krakra. Lyulin Mountain is located to the north of Pernik.

Transportation

Pernik is the second largest town in western Bulgaria. The town is located in the Pernik Valley and is surrounded by mountains Vitosha, Lyulin and Golo Bardo. Pernik is situated 30 kilometres (19 miles) southwest of the Bulgarian capital, Sofia. The territory of the town has many major roads, including Pan-European Corridor VIII and Pan-European Corridor IV – European route E79 /with Struma motorway and Lyulin motorway/, which connects Central Europe and Greece. Pernik has five railway stations and railway stops. The town lies close to one of the oldest trade routes in the Balkans, which ran from Sofia to Dubrovnik, via Skopje, Pristina, Sarajevo and Mostar.

Home of Surva

The International Festival of Masquerade Games “Surva” in Pernik is the most authoritative event for traditional national masked games and customs in Bulgaria and the Balkans. It popularizes variations of antique ritualism preserved to the present day, a part of the Bulgarian folklore tradition, as well as similar rituals of other cultures. The Surva International Festival of the Masquerade Games is held in the city every January. Surva is an International Kukeri Festival in Pernik and is one of the biggest masquerade festivals on the Balkans and Eastern Europe. It is held in the last three days of January each year.

Krakra Fortress – Pernik

The medieval Krakra Fortress is situated on a relatively small rocky plateau at the southwestern part of the town of Pernik. The fortress offers a view of Karvavoto Area. Today the Fortress of Pernik is one of the most attractive places for strolls and relaxation among the residents and the guests of the town of Pernik. The picturesque lighting and the 22-metre Bulgarian flag pole attract attention to the walls of the fortress. The catapults and the battering rams situated near one of the fortress walls are yet another attraction.
