Hello Ecency Friends! Today I want to meet you with at least in my opinion an extremely beautiful outdoor museum. In a unique place near the town of Gabrovo (8 km south). Inside you will be amazed by all the types of tools that people used to create everything until years ago.
What not, carpets, folk costumes, jewelry, marble tables, wooden furniture, wood carvings, icons, musical instruments, vehicles for anticipation. Garden equipment and more. I'm sure I'm missing something. And yes water mills.
Here we went up to a house where colorful rugs are sewn on a spindle, this is an extremely old tradition. By the way, I forgot to mention that from absolutely everything you can buy as a souvenir, the prices are quite good. In general, everything is affordable and worth it.
Some houses have been locked because some of the facilities are currently being restored and maintained. Which means we'll visit again later. It was definitely very curious to look out the window.
On the first floor of the house there were various hand-woven products that are sold as a souvenir. In general, this applies to almost all houses, with some exceptions, which are entirely museum and the items are not for sale.
A few photos from the street before we continue to the other houses.
The fountain was built in the distant 1864. I couldn't help but admire her and miss photos. It really looks so different, detached from time.
And now the second house - a museum. Hold your breath follows something extraordinary. I personally didn't want to leave.
The hard work, craftsmanship, skills that people have had in the past really amaze me. And now everything is so easy! You just go to the store, pick up the product, pay and lock up. Ready to use and there is enough. But people in the past really knew the true meaning of the word "work."
I really can't imagine what it's like to get up at 4-5 in the morning and start feeding animals, reading food by first taking it from your gardens, working in the garden, taking water from wells to irrigate everything. Or carry water to wash your rugs, carpets, clothes. Oh my God, everything in the past was really hard. Today we have machines that cancel us for absolutely everything. And sometimes we still complain that we are tired or do not have time. And time is truly the most valuable resource we have.That's why it's good to spend it properly and be careful about what and who we invest it in, because you can't go back and we don't know how much we have.
This is an oven in which various breads, cakes and pies were once prepared. To this day, pizzas are also used in various restaurants. Very tasty.A fire is lit inside and food is prepared on the grill.
Honestly, most of the things I saw for the first time and I didn't even know what they were used for. With some exceptions. It was very interesting indeed.
Since there are no railings, I decided to lean against the walls, and the funny thing was that I had to protect my head from impact because the ceiling was low in this part. I couldn't help but share this funny moment with you.
Well dear friends I think I will continue with an additional post about what is on the second floor, as well as other houses. I hope you enjoyed it, found it interesting and I will be happy to hear your comments. See you soon and be happy.
