This article revives a little known text about Belogradchik and its surroundings, written by the Bulgarian writer Stilian Chilingirov, and published in Pavel Deliradev’s book “Bulgarian Geographical Reader” (1943). In the past, Stilian Chilingorov was an eminent author and publicist, now entirely forgotten. Some data about the Belogradchik mining syndicate, presented by Joseph Kenarlekdji from London, are also presented.
