Rose picking has started in the rose gardens near Kazanlak, the municipality announced. Dozens of guests gathered in the rose gardens near the village of Kanchevo to learn about the traditions of growing oil-bearing roses and producing rose oil, which has made Bulgaria famous all over the world.
Rose pickers in folk costumes recreated the ritual of rose picking and gave those who wish the opportunity to join in and immerse themselves in the magic of the oil-bearing rose.
Traditional rose picking rituals are part of the program of the “Rose Festival”. There will be such rituals every Saturday and Sunday in various massifs in the Valley of Roses - in the villages of Kanchevo, Cherganovo, Rozovo, Ovoshtnik and Yasenovo. Residents and guests of the city will also be able to observe the rose oil extraction ritual in the “Kulata” ethnographic complex and in the Rose Museum in Kazanlak.
The Rose Festival in Kazanlak will last until June 8.
