Batak, Municipality seat in Pazardzhik Province, Bulgaria.
The city stands at 1,036 meters elevation in the Rhodope Mountains, with pine forests and the Stara reka river flowing through its territory.
During the April Uprising of 1876, Batak endured a severe conflict that resulted in thousands of casualties and attracted international attention to Bulgaria's independence struggle.
The Church of Saint Nicholas preserves the memory of local history through its architecture and interior elements, representing Bulgarian Orthodox traditions.
Visitors can reach Batak through regular public transportation connections from Plovdiv, with services operating throughout the day to accommodate travel needs.
The Batak Reservoir, constructed in the 1950s, transformed the area into a recreational destination with opportunities for fishing and water activities.
