Citizens protest in support of the Blue Stones Nature Park

Yordanka Dineva from the Bulgarian Biodiversity Foundation warned that an entire ecosystem would be threatened. According to Yordanka Dineva, 25% of the existing accommodation in the areas is being used, and the rest can be renovated, so there would be no need for new construction. ''The park is mainly known for its birds, its herbaceous plants, its beech forests and its butterflies'', Yordanka Dineva pointed out. "50% of the butterflies and orchids in Bulgaria can be seen only there", said Yordanka Dineva.
