Fishermen from the coastal town of Burgas will again observe the tradition of celebrating St. Nicholas Day on December 19 according to the old Church calendar. In the fishing village of Chengene Skele the celebrations will begin at 11.00 am with the consecration of a local chapel. Years ago, the altar was located at the mouth of Ropotamo River.
