Review:
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Rock-hewn Churches of Ivanovo are a cluster of monasteries, chapels, and monolithic churches that are carved out of rock. Located inside Rusenski Lom Nature Park, visitors will be able to see the beautiful structure, which was built by monks who inhabited the caves from the 1220s to the 17th century. There are five churches on the rock premises that visitors can explore; one of the most popular reasons visitors come from all over the world are the well-preserved frescoes, which can be seen within the churches. The frescoes go back to the 13th and 14th centuries and are prime examples of Bulgarian medieval art.
