"The gust of time changes human needs, the way of speaking, favorite music, dance, clothing... What remains unchanged is the insatiable thirst for culture, art and education of the Razlog population. For 115 years the Chitalishte has been the source from which we drink," the community center secretary, Velina Kulina, told BNR Blagoevgrad.
