The Memorial House of the Bulgarian Communist Party on top of the Buzludzha peak ( Бузлуджа ), hands down the sickest place I’ve ever visited.

I had found out about this astronaut-shaped building because a Spanish friend had posted scenic pics on fb. When I was travelling around the Balkan in 2017 I decided to pay it a visit. I was staying in a hostel in Veliko Tărnovo and together with other backpackers I met there we went to Buzludzha by car (the hitchhiking option seemed too complicated).

We went in from a hole in the ground, admired the shimmering communist mosaics (or what’s left of them), the graffiti, the scenic mountain landscape all around. Then we went out and found some guards who asked for our passports. As you can see from pic.5 the building is a security area protected by sensors and entrance is forbidden. Luckily they did not fine us, nor wanted a bribe, for I was quite short on cash.

I can’t tell if it’s still possible to visit this place, for it already seemed on the verge of falling apart 3 years ago. But if you go consider those guards and bring a torch and comfortable shoes.

All pictures were taken by me, except the first one and the last one, which are by Simon, a British fellow traveller. Bulgaria 2017
