In the Bulgarian mythology, well before the appearance of human beings, the earth was inhabited by a race of giant named the Ispolini. It is difficult not to invoke these mysterious figureheads when, our tour we walk the site of the « Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument / ???????? 1300 ?????? ???????? » in north-eastern Bulgaria. Since 1981, perched on the heights of the town of Shumen, this huge monument visible 30km round, commemorates more than 1300 years of Bulgarian history.
