Moniak fortress ruins and longest suspended bridge in Bulgaria

Alex, great to see a fellow flier from Bulgaria. I’m an American living in the UK. My grandfather came from Polekraishte, near Veliko Tărnovo, to the USA in 1906. My 85 year-old father and I visited the area last year in August - neither of us had ever been to Bulgaria. We flew into Sofia and drove east. I wish now I had taken the drone - I just didn’t know if it would be confiscated at the airport. A picture of the area for you...

Very good video although sometimes it transitioned to another shot when I was looking at a particular feature. What is the bridge for? I didn't see a rail line or a highway. Also, that looked to be a lot higher than 150m AGL?

The bridge is pedestrians only, there is a railway nearby and that's the only way to a near village

And Yes max height was 435 m
