The construction of the camp of the White Brotherhood near the Seven Rila Lakes in the Rila mountain has begun, as traditionally done since 1929. This is what Slav Slavov, chairman of the spiritual school of the followers of spiritual teacher Peter Dunov, told BNR.

According to the regulations of the Rila Park, a maximum of 60 tents will be placed in the camp, and their occupants should not exceed 200 people.

Thousands of people from Bulgaria and abroad gather at the camp of the White Brotherhood in late July and August, culminating in the Paneurhythmy dance on the morning of August 19, when they welcome the Divine New Year, BNR correspondent Kirill Falin reported.
