The route “Adam Mitskevich’s paths of love” leads to agritowns Boltsiniki and Benyakoni. Putcamers’ estate, the park of the 19th century, so called “Marylya’s Grove” in Boltsiniki have saved the history of love, romantic meetings and bitterness of parting of the famous poet Adam Mitskevich and his love – Marylya Verashchaka, later Countess Putcamer up to our days. By the way, the former possession of the Putcamers was noticed by cinematography in 2012. The serial “Vangeliya” by producer Sergey Barchukov was made there. Boltsiniki estate looks like the house for the blind in Bulgaria, where the famous soothsayer Vanga studied.

It is not by chance that there is a catholic church of Saint John the Baptist on this route in Benyakoni. Patron Countess Putcamer was buried near that saint place.


The centre of culture and folk creativity in Pagarodna suggests going by the “Road of Ancestors”.
