It turned out that the Men&#8217;s Horo in Kalofer is one of the most visited events I&#8217;ve ever been. The city was full of people wishing to see the Ice Horo, and there was not even a place to park your car. I&#8217;m used to getting up early for such events and photoshoots, and although I was there at 6:45 am., I was one of the last to arrive. Back on the road from Plovdiv I realized that I was quite late because of the traffic jam all the way to
