EXCLUSIVE FROM EXPRESS IMOTI 
GUEST HOUSE DECLARED A CULTURAL MONUMENT

A Revival-era guest house “Hadji Velinov Inn” is for sale in the village of Bozhentsi.
“Hadji Velinov Inn” is one of the emblematic guest houses in the architectural and historical reserve of Bozhentsi — a unique place preserving the authentic atmosphere of Bulgaria’s Revival period.

Bozhentsi is one of the few villages in the country declared an architectural reserve as early as 1964, and is under UNESCO protection as an example of Bulgarian Revival architecture.
The inn was built in 1830 and has been fully preserved and restored in the spirit of traditional Bulgarian architecture — with stone foundations, wooden balconies, fireplaces, and authentic details that transport guests two centuries back in time.

“Hadji Velinov Inn” is a cultural monument that successfully operates as a guest house and is a favorite destination for tourists who appreciate history, tradition, and tranquility.
