Thracian Tomb of Sveshtari, Thracian burial complex in Razgrad Province, Bulgaria
The tomb features carved limestone blocks forming three chambers with barrel vaults, decorated with intricate sculptures and architectural elements throughout the structure.
Discovered in 1982 within the Ginina Mogila mound, this royal tomb from the 3rd century BC belonged to a Getae ruler, possibly King Dromichaetes.
The central chamber contains ten carved female figures known as caryatids wearing long robes, holding up their hands to support the chamber's ceiling.
Located 2.5 kilometers from Sveshtari village, the tomb opens Wednesday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with guided tours available.
The walls display a scene depicting a ruler on horseback receiving a wreath from a goddess, combining Thracian and Hellenistic architectural traditions.
