Nikola Gruev has a wonderful old PBase index of Bulgarian monasteries and the Horseman of Madara. The page is very of-its-era: black background, tiny map images, and a long grid of monastery galleries.
Source: Bulgarian monasteries and the Horsåman of Madara Photo Gallery by Nikola Gruev at pbase.com
Original gallery note:
Bulgaria has 161 monasteries within the 14 church regions, called “sveti metropolii”. I have no intention to show all of them, but rather only the ones I have visited in the past and the ones I may visit in the future.http://www.infotel.bg/rubrics/manastir/manastirglaven.htm (http://www.infotel.bg/rubrics/manastir/manastirglaven.htm ) and this one [ http://www.bulgarianmonastery.com/ (http://www.bulgarianmonastery.com/ )
I pulled the full visible/index set here: 47 tiles (4 map/photo pages and 43 monastery/Madara gallery covers). The linked PBase subgalleries contain 1,210 individual images, so this post keeps the navigable index rather than flooding the topic with every internal frame.
