Melnik is a blend of unique nature - the cliffs clustered around the houses on the hills, history, culture and wine.
The old Melnik houses are impressive with their architecture in conformity with the laws of nature, with their wealth, with their wine cellars, with the Bulgarian sense of practicality and beauty.
Melnik is situated among the whimsical sand pyramids – some of the most fascinating natural phenomena on the Balkans.
