The first morning of July came again with what has become a decade-old tradition in our country to welcome the sunrise, called July morning.

"This is a purely Bulgarian tradition and celebration. Although the name is associated with the song of Yuria Heap "July morning"; and with the world hippie movement, it was created and continues to exist in Bulgaria", writes Bulgarian Legion Antimafia. It is a unique holiday for Bulgaria because of the place of its origin and is not observed in other countries in Europe and the world. The year of its first holding is 1985, and the city is Varna. According to other sources, the year is 1980

July morning is associated with welcoming the first sun of July and the beginning of something bright, warm and beautiful. Beginning of summer in life and human relations. In recent years, the tradition began to include not only the seashore. The participants climb the mountains and gather at iconic places and natural landmarks.
