Christmas in Bulgaria

Celebrate Christmas on the slopes of the Bulgarian ski resorts – Bansko, Borovets, Pamporovo, Chepelare and other smaller mountain resorts.

Indulge in a traditional Bulgarian Christmas dinner after skiing at the Christmas Eve (December 24) - the night before Christmas Day (December, 25) which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. The dinner at the Christmas Eve is lenten - ritual breads, beans, stuffed vine leaves filled with rice and wheat, stuffed peppers, pumpkin pastry, boiled corn, walnuts, etc. As a rule the dishes are an odd number – seven, nine, and so on. On the table are set rakia, red wine, oshav (dry fruits compote). After the whole family gathers together around the table, nobody stands up until the end of the dinner. The table stays set all night long because it is believed that the dead come for dinner.
