Antiokheiai Szent Margit-barlangja, Sanctuary cave in Slivarovo, Bulgaria.

The limestone cave contains water dripping formations along its walls and features a narrow passage leading to the main chamber interior.

Ancient Thracians established this site as a sacred location, which later became a significant pilgrimage destination for people traveling from Constantinople.

Local residents attach pieces of clothing to rocks inside the cave and leave representations of body parts seeking physical healing through Saint Marina.

The cave location requires a combination of jeep transportation and walking through forest paths, situated 12 kilometers from Slivarovo village.

A specific narrow opening within the cave, positioned one meter above ground level, forms part of fertility rituals for women seeking children.
