The city of Diocletian in the palm of my hand

We are about to look at a model of the city of Diocletian on a scale of 1:150, made by Mr. Tono Mekikov, a resident of the city of Hisarya.

It's time for photos, lots of smiles and a great mood!

After exploring together this wonderful, curious and so interesting and unexpected landmark of the city of Hisarya, it is time to inhale the aroma of the wonderful camellias blooming at the entrance of the Tourist Information Center in spring.

They are beautiful, aren't they!

And now we cross the boulevard to take pictures in front of the colorful sign HISARYA!

Directly behind the colorful inscription, we are about to see the ruins of Basilica No. 8, dated around the fifth century AD. The basilica has three naves, with a semicircular apse, vestibule and baptistery (baptism).

After exploring this interesting landmark, let's rest our feet by the water pavilion "Colonnade Momina Banya".

The water from the spring has a temperature of 51.2°C, so be careful!

After a good rest, we head to the magnificent Momina banya park.

Walking in the park is a great pleasure in any season – without a doubt!

In the spring, we can enjoy the blossoming magnolia trees that radiate beauty and inspire our senses!

When you feel tired, rest on one of the many benches in the park.

Maybe you were thirsty? No problems! In the Momina banya park there are two magnificent fountains that will gladly quench your thirst!
