Path of the Thracians
01-09 June, 2023
We will visit ancient Thracian sanctuaries emanating unexplainable mystical energy.
Path Of the Thracians
We will get acquainted with the Thracian mysteries of Dionysius, we will pass through the entrance to the underworld where Orpheus begged for his Eurydice, we will stand atop the rock on which the divine singer created his most exquisite songs and we will tour the lands where he lived.
We will visit ancient Thracian sanctuaries radiating unexplainable mystical energy: votive cromlechs, rock platforms and dolmens, all patiently waiting for the time when we will be ready to hear the whispers coming from antiquity... Belintash and Begliktash, Perperikon and Starosel, Tatul, Karadzhov Kamen...
We will pass through the valley of the Thracian kings, we will see tombs and uncovered palaces learning who were Seuthes, Cotis and Zalmoxis.
In the journey through the Thracian lands we will discover about the heroes described by Homer, Plato and Plutarch, like Spartacus and Achilles.
In this journey back in time, we will find out who the Thracian deities were. We will learn about the Mother Goddess Cybele, also called Bendis, the supreme God Heros, we will find out who were the other gods especially revered among them and passed on to other cultures.
