With our pleasure always @soulsdetour. Keep up the awesome writings! 😀

Hello dear @soulsdetour. I don't know why, but I guess the phenomenon of locals being less knowledgeable about their own cultural heritage compared to foreigners holds true. And I'm simply guilty of that, not because of disinterest but perhaps due to the tendency of complacency - knowing that these architectural sites are already within my reach, plus could be visited anytime. Also, people's desire for novelty might be a strong factor here, as they usually overlook what they already experience and possess.

On the other hand, that historic gazebo (sometimes architecturally referred to as a pergola), as scarred and worn-out as it may appear, is a physical testament of the past, glorifying the renowned Bulgarian poet hence called Park Penyo Penev. What's interesting about that monument are its distinctive archways, probably having Spanish design influence. Unfortunately, without proper maintenance and conservation, that structure might crumble sooner or later, eliminating a significant memory that once flourished there. 😊

Oh wow! What a great coincidence. Most likely, Bulgarians during the dark era must have been desperately searching for artistic inspirations, focusing behind the scenes on the more advanced civilizations of the West. Moreover, the design elements of Spanish architecture are actually one of the world's most recognizable characteristics. You'll immediately know its effective influence on a building or structure based on its visual clues. Hence, I didn't hesitate in mentioning it here. I wonder, what else could be secretly hiding within Park Penyo Penev? Looking forward to seeing the other equally amazing works of architecture that are waiting to be discovered in this spectacular location. Happy exploring! 😊

"ode to the reinforced concrete" is a poetic name for a park named after the poet. Really interesting reflections, because in those days a "simple" person from the people would hardly have been immortalized. Makes me think. It's sad to see so many dilapidated buildings in such a beautiful green park.
I also encounter such a phenomenon that local residents know little about iconic buildings or places in their city. Some people just don't care. While ordinary tourists may show unprecedented interest. Paradox.
This is a rather unusual gazebo, which, unfortunately, is not in the best condition. I especially like its high arches. I would like people to be more appreciated about such historical buildings/construction, and the authorities contributed to the restoration. Anyway, this construction is really beautiful!

I respect you for the fact that you are not indifferent to what is happening around. You should not be ashamed, since you cannot drastically influence this situation. You should definitely publish here the wonderful architecture of Bulgaria, no matter what condition the buildings are in. This is a wonderful initiative. If historical buildings cannot be preserved in the physical world, then perhaps they should be preserved in the virtual world and in the minds of readers.
I wish you good luck and Best wishes!

And I'm also aware that one cannot feel and understand one place, if one doesn't visit it.

I agree. Also, it is sad why the structure is being ignored.
