Past exchange results (Kakono Koryujiseki)

We exhibited Bulgaria at the ward gallery on the first floor of the Hodogaya Ward Office.
It seems that the pattern of gorgeous embroidery varies depending on the region.

We visited four elementary schools to showcase Bulgarian folk music and introduce Bulgarian culture.
The Bulgarian menu also appeared in school lunch on the day, and it was a fun day to see, listen and eat.

The Balkan members appeared about the Hodogaya Performing Arts Festival and performed Bulgarian folk music.
The instruments used in the performance are Bulgaria's unique, and are called Gadruca, tumblula, and gaida, respectively.

Hodogaya Ward also exhibited a Bulgarian booth at the International Festa.
In the opposite of the booth, there was also an exhibition and presentation of Lyon, a sister city with the city, which was able to entertain the visitors.
It is held around November every year, so if you are interested, please visit us.

Along with the morning market in front of the ward office, which is held every month, a mini-concert in front of the ward office was held, and Balkan, who has been playing the Bulgarian people for many years, also cooperated.

On the outdoor stage, Jordan Markov, who plays Bulgarian music all over the country, came and performed wonderful performances using Bulgarian folk instruments. At the booth, we had a stamp experience using Bulgarian characters Kirill characters.

Abagal Quartet, a female chorus group from Bulgaria, has arrived in Japan.
To commemorate our visit to Japan, we held an exchange event in Hodogaya Ward.

Bulgarian folk costumes are decorated with many gorgeous embroidery.
The embroidery made can be used as a bookmark.

Clarsen Klarev, Minister of Youth and Sports of the Republic of Bulgaria, visited Hodogaya Ward and planted roses in Hoshikawa Central Park to commemorate the 10th anniversary of friendship between Sophia and Hodogaya Ward. The planted rose is a variety called "damask rose", and it is said to be the "queen of roses" because it is said to have the best aroma among many roses.
In addition to the Minister of Youth and Sports, seven people from Bulgaria came to Hodogaya. In Hodogaya, flower mates and children from nearby nursery schools also rushed and welcomed the Bulgaria party.
