Summary
A comprehensive examination of the pilgrim route known as 'The Holy Path,' which traces the journey of St. Ivan (John) of Rila's relics from 1469, reveals a rich tapestry of karst regions and rock-hewn cultural-historical heritage. This path, spanning diverse geographical and historical landscapes, offers significant potential for preservation and digitalization to enhance its attractiveness and educational value. The study emphasizes the importance of documenting and analyzing this route to ensure its long-term conservation and exposure, thereby contributing to both academic research and public engagement with Bulgaria's cultural heritage.
