Nestinarstvo



Nestinarstvo (, ) is a ritual originally performed in several Bulgarian- and Greek-speaking villages in the Strandzha Mountains close to the Black Sea coast in the very southeast of Bulgaria. It involves a barefooted dance on smouldering embers (жарава, zharava) performed by nestinari (нестинари).
