The sixth edition of the Balloon Fiesta has begun in Belogradchik, the municipal administration said here on Saturday.
Dozens of visitors gathered early in the day at the Panairishte area, from where the balloons took off over the Belogradchik Rocks. The same site will serve as the launch area in the coming days, with flights taking place subject to suitable weather conditions, the administration said.
