Albums - Tran (16 photos here)

Tran is a small town in Pernik Province, western Bulgaria. It is 27 kilometres away from the town of Breznik and 15 km from the border with Serbia.

One dinstinctive feature of the town is that a unique dialect of the Bulgarian language is spoken in Tran. This dialect differs so greatly from ordinary Bulgarian that someone from a nearby town such as Pernik could not understand it easily.

The Erma River which flows from the town has formed a magnificent george known as Transko Zhdrelo. Tran holds the Bulgarian lowest temperature record at −38.3°C (−36.94°F) registered in the winter of 1947.
