Our country is small in terms of territory, but it gathers seven folklore regions, each unique for itself with its own specific features in terms of clothing, music, songs and dances.<\/p>\n
Severnyashka folklore region<\/strong> covers most of the Danube plain and the northern part of the Staroplaninska range. In the east it borders the lands of Dobrudja, in the west - with Serbia, in the north - with the Danube river, and in the south - with the Pre-Balkan and the Main Staroplaninska chain. Since it covers a large territory, the Northern folklore region is divided into three main parts: the western part, in which the cities of Vratsa, Montana, Vidin and Lom are located; middle northern part, which includes the cities of Lovech, Pleven, Gabrovo, Veliko Tarnovo and Svishtov and eastern part with main centers - Shumen, Razgrad and Ruse.<\/p>\n Dances<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n The folk dance in Northern Bulgaria is extremely rich and diverse. We are witnessing a whirlwind play related to breaking away from cares, everyday life, rural work and indulging in joy and gaiety, freedom of movement and ease of performance. Through dancing, the Bulgarian seems to want to separate himself from the earth and fly.<\/p>\n You can read more about our native folklore, holidays and customs, clothing and embroidery in the collection<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
