These wooden houses were built from the end of 18th c.until the the beginning of the 19th c.and are,now, distinctive for the Nessebar.These houses will not,probably,impress you.This place was one of many natural and not only natural calamities so the aspect of a cheap and provisional state is visible.All these if we should see comparing with the German wooden masterpiece from Alsace.

That could define the diversity of the history and of the people who were pressed by their history.Their hope?...Those few English words:eek:

Walking on these streets where beauty,poorness and oldness live together one could ask what it happened here in the past when people renounced at bricks and stone for wood.It could be those strange names of the streets like Krum,Asparukh,Omurtag,Basil Bulgaroktonos,Ivan,etc which come from the history or natural disasters or, who knows,other deadly combinations

If sun sea beach are together the wine must be nearby.There is written "vinaria"which means wine bar.Now,when the summer and holidays gone,it is closed.

I am a disorderly tourist,I never notice what I see and in my head is a medley of noises,smells, colors, images,hard to localize and to illustrate in my picture.So I am not sure if this image is from St.Paraskeva church.I hope to be.

I succeeded in photographing behind the closed door but,in this case,the disappointment could be an ordinary presence.

Of course,not all tourists are interested in such empty interiors,rather to find the bargains of these places:D

However there is a monument which was restored and transformed in a museum.Its inside is opened to visit,but it's difficult to photograph because of the watching cameras for those who don't pay a tax for that(the ticket for the access doesn't include it)
The pulpit and episcopal chair are remarkably.

The altar is at the East side of the church.Always,on the North door of the altar screen St.Archangel Michael is painted.Here,He was worn as soldier with his feet on a fallen(corrupt) angel.Of course on the South side is St.Archangel Gabriel.

The beauty of the top side of the altar screen show to the visitors,again,the love of those people for their faith.

It is interesting to observe that here in Nessebar,Ottomans built only a bath in 17th c.,now a ruin and a fountain,in 18th c.,still in service.I photographed it in such way to show to the onlooker the dualistic character(one could say too much for a fountain)of the Ottoman power which believed it will stay here for the eternity and in the same time the entire lasciviousness of the haunches who moved behind the seraglios' doors.

Why the ottomans didn't build a mosque here,in Nessebar?The easiest answer could be that this place had a"minus gamma" rank-in nowadays terms of globalization.The Ottomans' points of interest were marked by mosques.For example the place of the capital of Bulgaria,Sofia,whose importance was recognized by Turk administration,for the first time,being named the capital of Rumelia province and where they built Banya Bashy mosque,still in service
