At Holiday&SPA Expo we focus on Dimovo Municipality: the caves of Venetsa and Kozarnika, the ancient city of Ratsiaria and the folklore festival Ziva Voda–Venetsa
Dimovo Municipality is located in northwestern Bulgaria, 30 km. from the regional town of Vidin. The combination of the natural beauty of the “Veneca” cave and the cultural and historical heritage of the ancient city of “Raciaria” are an excellent prerequisite for the development of the municipality as an attractive tourist destination.
From March 9 to 11, visitors to the exhibition will be welcomed by the Dimovo Municipality team in Hall 3, Stand A9 at Holiday&SPA Expo. In the following lines, we invite you to a preliminary tour of the stand, which will reveal a series of geographical and cultural and historical landmarks.
The largest stalagmite is in the Venetsa cave
The natural phenomenon Venetsa Cave is 1 km away. south-west from the village of Oreshets Railway Station to the Dimovo Municipality, Vidin region. It is rarely beautiful, the underground corridors are 200 meters long, on which 5 halls are located. Inside you can see beautiful stalactites and stalagmites and the largest stalacton on the Balkan Peninsula, as well as bizarre images of ice crystals. The formations are colorful and scientists explain their formation with the lack of oxygen, in which the water crystallizes, and the different colors are obtained from the different color of the clay and rocks.
Kozarnika cave may contain the oldest evidence of human presence in Europe
The “Kozarnika” Cave is also located on the territory of Dimovo Municipality. Since 1996 archaeological excavations are being carried out in the cave, organized by the Archaeological Institute of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia and the Institute of Quaternary Geology and Prehistory in Bordeaux.
The cave was inhabited during the Middle Paleolithic, but the lowest layers are of greatest importance. They have been dated to an age of 1.4 million years ago. A tooth of a representative of the genus Homo., perhaps Homo erectus, was found in them. If the dating is correct, this would be the earliest record of human presence in Europe.
Chivalry connected Trajan’s Dacia and Italy
The remains of the ancient city of Raciaria are located to the west of the village. Archar, in the area of Kaleto. The city occupies a high non-flooded terrace near the banks of the Danube River. The natural roads from Traianova Dacia to Itaria ran through Raciaria, not only for passenger messages, but also for the transportation of goods. The salt of Sedmigradsko was also transported from here. Social relations in Raciaria do not make any exceptions from the social development of other cities in the Roman provinces.
