Kadin vir

Kadin vir is the deepest hole in the Lilyache area/Lilyache village, Vratsa municipality/. Even our ancestors and their children used this name. Every time I approached Kadin Vir, I heard its waters whispering its legend about the beautiful Kada … In these lands lived a proud girl, with eyes like cherries, with a good and generous heart. When she started dancing, like she wasn’t a girl, she was like a thin poplar, wind-swept. She was secretly coming to the spring to meet Todor.
Near the spring were the best pastures and Todor grazed his flock there. He was traveling everywhere, but when the sun was setting behind the Milevi rocks, he was in a hurry to meet Kada. Once he got here, the flute sounded and his sweet sound floated around. During this time, she was eagerly approaching the path. The flute was silent to leave the two hearts trembling to whisper … One evening, Kadinka took the cobbler on her shoulder and headed for the bridge to meet Todor. After her, the Turk also left – if the shepherd delays, he will take her. Mehmed reached out to take her slim body, but she was scared and run. The pursuer quickly reached her and reached out again to grab her. She rose quickly – her heart started beating like a trapped bird and she saw black in front of her eyes. With the last powers Kadinka turned to her only rescue – the bottomless lake. And he threw himself into the deep waters of it. Amazed, Mehmed froze on the spot. During this time from the hill there was a sound of talanga.  Todor was coming with the flock of sheep – hurrying to meet his girlfriend.

But they didn’t get to meet again. The cold waters wrapped her warm body and pulled her down to Dalgi Vir and the Toplik River.
Above the water she was floating only her handkerchief …

Many years have passed since then, but no one has forgotten the sad story of Kadinka. About her even today whisper the waters … And the lake was named after the girl – Kadin Vir.
