Beledie Han

Beledie Han (Bulgarian: Беледие хан) is a settlement in Kostinbrod Municipality, Sofia Province (Western Bulgaria).

It is situated along Lomsko Road (Sofia – Petrohan Pass – Berkovitsa – Montana – Lom).

In the past, Beledie Han was an important commercial center, where the roads from Sofia to Vratsa and Vidin crossed.

In the beginning of the summer, the music festival Lilac OpenAir[1] is held in the area close to Lyulaka hut.

It is believed that the area has buried gold and untold riches, which makes it interesting for treasure hunters.

The residents of the village zealously protect nature and protest against attempts to turn its land into an industrial zone according to plans by the Kostinbrod municipality.

Private investors are proposing the construction of a huge photovoltaic park and a green hydrogen plant.
