Such places particularly blessed with the presence of God and intended for serving Him are the churches. The Orthodox church is a place dedicated to God intended for offering up public prayers to Him. The church is also a spring of blessing, wisdom, knowledge, spirit of community, refinement, improvement and salvation. Nonetheless, as history teaches us, the churches and monasteries in Bulgaria have been used for other purposes as well. Over the years, they have served as places for defense and gathering of people fighting for freedom - people, monks and priests who could not wait for someone else to liberate them from the physical and spiritual Ottoman yoke in Bulgaria. Therefore, I would like to introduce to you my photo album of Orthodox churches and monasteries in Bulgaria in order to allow you to get to know, see, and feel the faith preserved in time and also the places where freedom was earned. I would like to show you the boundlessness of the spirit, the talent and the faith of the masters reflected in the architecture and the frescoes of the holy Orthodox churches and monasteries. At the same time, I would like to pay due respect to the faith, the dedicated labor, privation and sacrifice of all our compatriots who have build the innumerable churches and monasteries in our land. In this sense, the present album shall serve not only as a guidebook in our pilgrimage journey, but also as means of traveling in time, which we should rethink and evaluate.
