Aguševi Konaci (Aga's Konaks), principal hall (poton or čardak) on upper level
Mogilica (Mogilitsa), Bulgaria
The northern (uphill) konak has a large poton with three sitting areas, one raised platform (пейка, peĩka) pictured here above the stair and overlooking the second courtyard. A lattice enclosure provides privacy to this open-air interior. A row of timber posts express the frame construction of the konak.
