Ksilifor, near Veliko Tarnovo, springs to life with magical sculptures

13723985_1083945528332543_4813052188440642782_oStudents from Veliko Tarnovo University and the National Academy of Arts have turned the park at Ksilifor near Veliko Tarnovo in a magical forest. Dozens of sculptures made of wood, stone and metal now adorn and enliven the area. Ksilifor is located just 3 km away from VT and is a favourite place for day outs, hiking, sports and entertainment. Some of the enchanting items you will find there are a fabulous library, a tree with a golden apple, a magic carpet, a swing in the form of a dragon, Baba Yaga’s House (Baba Yaga is a witch who flies around in a mortar or on a broom and wields a pestle, and dwells deep in the forest in a hut usually described as standing on chicken legs (or sometimes a single chicken leg) and Flintstone’s car. 13731022_1083945624999200_2651244265616003116_oA flock of ducks keep them company and a few turtles calmly swim in the small lake in the park and occasionally go out ashore.
