Belogradchik (Белоградчик) is a town in Vidin Province,
Northwestern Bulgaria, the administrative centre of the homonymous Belogradchik
Municipality. The town, whose name literally means "small white
town," is situated in the foothills of the Balkan Mountains just east of
the Serbian border and about 50 km south of the Danube River. The town is
famous for its unique and impressive rock formations, the Belogradchik Rocks,
which cover an area of 90 square kilometres and reach up to 200 metres in height.
There are about 5,300 inhabitants in Belogradchik.
