+description: 'Gela, the supposed birthplace of Thracian musician and poet Orpheus, has a breathtaking view of the Rhodope Mountains.'

+
+As you drive into the village of Gela in southern Bulgaria a sign informs you that this is the birthplace of [Orpheus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orpheus), the legendary Thracian musician and poet. I'm not sure if it's true, but who _wouldn't_ be able to "charm all living things and even stones" with their music if they were born in a village with such a view? These are the [Rhodope Mountains](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodope_Mountains) in the golden afternoon sunlight of early spring.

+Gela is just a stone's throw from the cultural village of Shiroka Laka and about twenty minutes from the ski resort town of Pamporovo.
