The abandoned mosque reminds of the time when Blagoevgrad was an important town in Ottoman Empire and when its population consisted mostly of Muslims.
Nowadays there are 3 Muslim families in the town, according to the local people.

Directions: just ask for Mosque square ('ploshtad Dzhamija'), it is not far from Varosha old town
there is also a bus stop there
