We went here after reading the few reviews on here. The cascading waterfall is breathtaking. We went scrambling up and over bridges that don't look sturdy but surprised us all! They're not going anywhere soon! Keep climbing as the views are absolutely worth it. We spent around 2 hours there going up, down and over ladders, following the wall of the canyon. We had a beautiful picnic - there are plenty of places to stop and rest - we chose next to the waterfall before walking and were lucky enough for it to be really quiet. Useful tips: 1. Wear sturdy and good gripping shoes 2. Take a picnic to enjoy 3. Take plenty of water 4. Take swimmers if you fancy a dip 5. Be aware that in places further on in the walk, there is no hand rail so if you are anxious about heights, think about how far you want to go! 6. Rocks can be slippery when wet Whatever you do, go and check out this gem of a place

I visited Melon many times during my stay in Veliko Tarnovo with friends, they have different events every night, wednesday is karaoke night which was my favorite because I love to sing, there is also DJ night, and live music nights with solo players and bands, very cozy place with a very well stocked bar to quench your thirst. Popo will make sure you are always with a drink in hand, he is the main bartender there, just tell him the Mexican pilot recommended it, he will not only smile but he will definitely take care of you! Melon bar is a must for one of your nights out in Veliko!

The Monument is like the typical communist Monument, simply wanting to display grandeur. But you get perfect views over the city! I bet in the summertime it is even better as you could sit on some steps, having like a quick picnic. Must see place in Veliko.
