Belene - Home of Big Buzz Orchestra

Oh my, what a world! It has everything: it has rivers and islands, it has magnificent biodiversity full of plants and birds, it has breathtaking views. Indeed, due to its biodiversity, the Belene district is full of protected territory and wildlife sanctuaries, all in order to preserve its unique nature.

“Big Buzz Orchestra” comes from one of most preserved natural territories in Bulgaria. Our hives
are situated in wild places, which portray the feeling of a place untouched by the foot of
mankind.

Persina Natural Park - Belene

The overwhelming nature of Belene sucks your breath out and tightens your throat, because the reasons why it remains so pure, why it remains unscathed by man’s negative impact on the environment, are related to one of mankind’s darkest and most tragic moments.

Belene is the place where one of the most terrifying communist concentration camps took roots.
Here the disagreeing, the thoughtful and those cherishing freedom were locked. Here, in order
to keep quiet, those who had something to say were locked.

This is the tragic reason why the nature of Belene is so preserved. And now, years later, it is simply incredible that a place, so soaked with tears and suffering, is able to produce such sweetness.

For us it is important to preserve the memory, even when it is connected to the most horrible moments in our history. This is why it is our mission to channel part of the proceeds towards building a museum for this darker part of our history, because the best way to avoid repeating the tragic moments of the past is by not letting them be forgotten.

Belene now is a nature ingrained with exceptional taste. And we want it to always be just that nothing else and nothing like the past.
