Visit the ‘Grandpa Yotso Is Watching’ complex, just 50 km from the town of Vratsa, and enjoy the breathtaking views. Here you’ll discover the unique story of the place that inspired Ivan Vazov to write his famous short story.

In 2005, at the suggestion of a resident of the nearby village, a monument to Grandpa Yotso was erected. The complex also includes a panoramic gazebo and walking paths.
