Shipka Monument above Shipka Pass

Shipka Pass (Bulgarian: Шипченски проход, Shipchenski prohod) (el. 1150 m./3820 ft.) is a scenic mountain pass through the Balkan Mountains in Bulgaria. It marks the border between Stara Zagora province and Gabrovo province. The pass connects the towns of Gabrovo and Kazanlak. The pass is part of the Bulgarka Nature Park. The pass is 13 km by road north of the small town of Shipka. Shipka Monument was opened with a ceremony in 1934 and designed by architect Atanas Donkov and sculptor Aleksandar Andreev. An important influence was the Monument to the Battle of the Nations in Germany. The monument is a 31.5-metre (98-foot) high stone tower in the form of a truncated pyramid. A giant bronze lion, 8 m (26 feet) long and 4 m (13 feet) high, stands above the entrance to the tower, and a figure of a woman represents the victory over the Ottoman forces. A marble sarcophagus housing some of the remains of the Russian and Bulgarian casualties is on the first floor. There are four other floors where one can find replicas of Bulgarian military flags and other relics. The top of the tower reveals a panorama of Shipka Peak and the surrounding area Some other videos representing 1000+ video on my channel about the majority of 87 countries and 399 UNESCO World Heritage sites that I visited up to date Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria 5900 km trip in 2025 Plus Many Other Places, Around the World    • Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria 5900 km trip in...   Esterhazy Palace: Hungarian Versailles near Fertod, Hungary    • Esterhazy Palace: Hungarian Versailles nea...   Greece 2025 trip: 2690 km Mycenae, Monemvasia to Meteora & Vikos Gorge, 11 UNESCO WHS in 8 days    • Greece 2025 trip: 2690 km  Mycenae, Monemv...   Meteora: Extremely Scenic Rock Formations, UNESCO World Heritage in Greece, family of 5 trip.    • Meteora: Extremely Scenic Rock Formations,...   Louvre, the best Museum of the world: ~2000 images in 7.5 hours; drinking beauty with S22    • Louvre, the best Museum of the world: ~200...   Italy 39 out of 58 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Italy , the most culturally reach country of the world and likely the most artistically creative    • Italy 39 out of 58 UNESCO World Heritage S...   Singapore: Clean, Green, Modern, Rich City near Equator; Population 5.5 M GDP 400 B; Area 734 km^2    • Singapore: Clean, Green, Modern, Rich City...   Sunrise over Borobudur: the largest buddist temple: top UNESCO World Heritage in Indonesia    • Sunrise over Borobudur: the largest buddis...   Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam video    • Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam video   Santa Cruz the best Trek in Huaraz, Peru 4 day 52 km 4750 m above see level hiked by Victor, age 6 Video link    • Santa Cruz the best Trek in Huaraz, Peru 4...   Amiens Cathedral is the Largest in France , UNESCO World Heritage since 1981    • Amiens Cathedral  is the Largest in France...   The most well rounded girl , Yunona Bukasova; Elbrus, 5642 m at age 9 and math IQ 190, age 10.5    • . The most well rounded girl , Yunona Buka...
