Daskalov house,
view from entry gate
Tryavna, Bulgaria
Built from 1804 to 1808 for a wealthy merchant, this house is notable for its refined National Revival architecture and wood craftsmanship. The symmetrical building is sited in a walled garden on the west bank of the Tryavna River. The lower level was used for the family business, with living spaces above opening from the large verandah (čardak).
