A market of goods from the Bulgarian Northwest, delicious local dishes according to traditional recipes, a children's pottery workshop, ethnic music and fusion jazz improvisations with instruments from different parts of the world, a dance-musical miniature and other attractions will entertain the guests of this year's Feast of the harvest in the village of Gorna ‎Bela Rechka near Montana.

In addition to typical foods from the Northwest region, the guests of the holiday will also try specialties typical of Polish and Iranian cuisine.

"It is not the first time that Iran has visited Gorna Bela Rechka - there is a family that has been living in Bulgaria for several years and is engaged in food preparation. So they will present their versions of some dishes. And the lady who is from Poland, she has been living in Bulgaria for 30 years and will present the Polish tradition of preserving the sun and summer emotions in a jar," Mariana Asenova, organizer of the holiday, told BNR-Vidin. 

Within the framework of the event on October 21, there will also be a forum for amateur contemporary arts.‎
