I also sense a presence of the mythology surrounding Bastet in Kubcheto.

Bastet, a goddess from Egypt (but with a definite Bulgarian connection)
assumed the image of a cat. Although she combined both nurturing and violent qualities, her shielding and motherly aspects were typically emphasized. She protected the home from evil spirits and disease.

Today, one can pay a visit to the "sanctuary of the goddess Bastet" located in Gradishteto, west of Malko Tarnovo.

OR, one can pay a visit to Kubcheto, safe in the conclusion that your home meanwhile is protected, should you by accident loose your key or for any reason not find your way home at first try.

Bastet is clearly present symbolically, as presented by the Queens of Kubcheto, but also in the images of cats that are to be found there.

Personally, I find that Bastet also has blessed Kubcheto to be a good second home in Sofia, always welcoming for a beer and a small talk, that easily can treat also big issues. Long Live Kubcheto!
