Saint Petka chapel, Orthodox cave chapel in Beraintsi, Tran, Bulgaria.
The rock chapel features stone stairs leading to its entrance, with water continuously flowing from the natural cave ceiling throughout the year.
The chapel underwent complete restoration between 1990 and 1994, following a period when the structure served as a storage space and endured vandalism.
Local traditions connect this site to Saint Petka, who according to regional accounts sought refuge in this cave during the eleventh century.
The chapel interior accommodates groups of maximum seven people at once, while a platform above provides views across the surrounding landscape.
Visitors regularly collect water dripping from the cave ceiling, considering it to possess medicinal properties according to regional beliefs.
