BULGARIA - SPRING is near...





SPRING is coming... Can you feel it? We have an old tradition in Bulgaria. It is maybe more than 1300 years. For first day of March we twist MARTENICI from white and red threds. We hang up them ourselves, our friends, our homes, pets. We wear them for the HEALTH till we see the first swallow. Then we hang them on a fruit tree. And we enjoy to the beautiful Bulgarian Nature - the wonderful place where our country is situated.


MARTENICITE are made by pupils from PS "Ivan Vazov".
