Bulgarians Recall Zhivkov with a Smile Pravets retains many of its acquisitions from the socialist era: tidy, paved squares, well-maintained greenery, an artificial lake, street lights, a highway to Sofia, and perhaps most significantly its status as a town, bestowed 25 years ago, which helped it leave behind the humiliating position of a mere village. All these assets Pravets owes to Zhivkov, who did not hesitate to spend state money to satisfy personal emotional attachments - a fact that the local people clearly remember. The central square is still named after Zhivkov, the local council keeps up an memorial home dedicated to the former leader, and grateful citizens even put up a monument to him - the only one in the country - after his death. www.iwpr.net /?p=brn&s=f&o=322514&apc_state=henpbrn   (1781 words)

A possible reason for the buyer's withdrawal could be that the Pravets mayor has passed on information that the gasification of the town, located north-west of Sofia, could get underway as early as January 2005. The heating utility of Pravets reported a profit of 212,000 levs and sales to the total worth of 1 mln levs in 2003. news.dnevnik.bg /print.php?id=2519   (210 words)

destination guide - Botevgrad And Pravets - Bulgaria   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) Once a thriving market town, profiting from its position at the northern end of the (no longer used) Baba Konak Pass, Botevgrad is nowadays a sterile modern place whose main claim to fame is the Chavdar factory - makers of the buses that clatter their way across Bulgaria. It's in places like Pravets that nostalgia for the certainties of the Communist era is at its strongest. When Zhivkov made a much-publicized visit to his home town in May 1995 (despite being ostensibly under house arrest in Sofia at the time), he was given an emotional welcome by thousands of locals, many of whom were in tears. www.cityguides-worldwide.com /Bulgaria/43423.htm   (280 words)
