Each day she scales the Bulgarian capital's towering cathedral belfry to ring the church bells across the city - sometimes for hours on end. STORYLINE The Alexander Nevsky cathedral in Bulgaria is one of the largest eastern Orthodox churches in the world. Its belfry towers 53 metres (174 feet) above the capital city of Sofia. The cathedral was built in the late 19th Century to commemorate Bulgaria's liberation from Ottoman rule. A member of the congregation for Sunday mass inside this magnificent building is the equally magnificent Maria Zabova. After some spiritual exercise - singing hymns - she prepares for some hard physical exercise. Zabova has to climb the stairs up the cathedral's bell tower: all 220 of them. Once she reaches the top her work is not finished, in fact, it's only just begun. Zabova is a bell ringer at the cathedral, and despite her age she's just as energetic as somebody half her age. She says: "I never feel tired. Quite the contrary, when I am ringing the bells I start feeling such strength and I could ring them for a long time." She's been ringing the bells here for 29 years. But the weight doesn't stop Zabova from performing sometimes for hours on end.
