Luxury in Lukovit

A decent ride, mostly on quiet mountain roads, arriving in Lukovit at 3:30pm.

A well earned lunch in Dobrevtsi, mostly delicious vegetarian. Lunches have so far been consistently more interesting than evening meals.

Lukovit is small - about a third the size of Keighley- approached via a fast downhill dash into poor housing. Then a corner is turned and the Diplomat Plaza hotel is straight ahead. 4 star here is same as home and they try hard.

Lukovit is a mixture of poor housing, former Soviet memorials and flats, traditional farming and crafts (hay cutting with scythes), two posh hotels and the occasional Bulgarian Orthodox Church full of icons.
