Rupite Tour

Discover the Spiritual Home of Baba Vanga

Visit the fascinating village of Rupite, one of Bulgaria's most unique and spiritually significant destinations. Located near the town of Petrich in southwestern Bulgaria, Rupite is best known as the place where the world-famous Bulgarian prophetess Baba Vanga lived and welcomed visitors seeking guidance, hope, and healing.

Walk in the Footsteps of Baba Vanga

For decades, people from around the world traveled to Rupite to meet Baba Vanga, whose predictions and spiritual insights made her one of the most famous personalities in Bulgarian history. Today, visitors can explore the area where she lived and learn more about her extraordinary life and legacy.

The Church of St. Petka

One of the most important landmarks in Rupite is the beautiful Church of St. Petka, built with the support of Baba Vanga herself. The church has become a place of pilgrimage for visitors who come to experience the peaceful atmosphere and spiritual energy of the region.

A Land Shaped by Ancient Volcanic Activity

Rupite lies at the foot of Kozhuh Hill, the remains of an extinct volcano that has shaped the landscape for thousands of years. The area is famous for its natural mineral springs, warm waters, and unique volcanic terrain, creating a landscape unlike anywhere else in Bulgaria.
