People from all over the country will gather at the meadows around the Monastery "Sts Cosmas and Damian" near the village of Gigintsi, for the festival of folklore, traditions, and culture "In the Heart of Graovo". The gathering is held every year on the second weekend of July. The local people say the monastery is the "heart of the region of Graovo", and it was not by chance that the festival, which took place for the first time in 2018, was named this way.
Traditionally, the gathering starts with a meeting of clergy, senior statesmen, representatives of the cultural, political and business circles. This year, the tradition will also be preserved, as the theme of the forum is "Journey with only one piece of luggage - the heart". The focus is on actual tourism opportunities – routes and trails for cultural-historical, pilgrimage and religious tourism and accommodation in the region.
The host of the event is Archimandrite Nikanor, who pointed out that for the fifth edition of the forum there will be live orchestra for the horo dance and many more surprises.
