Nestinarstvo is a fire ritual originally performed in several Bulgarian villages in the Strandzha Mountains, close to the Black Sea coast (Bulgari, Kosti, and Brodilovo). It involves a barefoot dance on smouldering embers performed by nestinari. It is usually performed on the square of the village in front of the whole population on the day of St. Constantine and Helen. In 2009, the ritual was entered in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists. Book Bulgarian night and get messages from the past!
