Visitng Wax Figures Museum

In our town recently a new museum opened doors – Wax figures museum which is unique not only for Bulgaria but for the whole Balkan Peninsula. There isn’t another such museum in the region. Its aim is to represent the life of the Medieval Societies in Bulgaria during the rule of tsar Kaloyan in particular. We visited this museum as a part of our History classes with the idea to find out more about the Bulgarian history and see it in a more realistic way. We had the opportunity to see ancient homes of boyars, artillery, different guns and ancient handicrafts. In my opinion the most interesting part was the last one – figures of warriors with traditional armors and scenes of fights. I was amazed that something so impressive was done in our country.
