The French Ambassador to Bulgaria, Etienne de Poncins, has confirmed his support for Bulgaria's Belogradchik Rocks to become one of the world's new seven wonders.
De Poncins declared his support at the tourist information centre in the town of BelogradchikWednesday. He was there together with State Agency for Tourism Chair Anelia Krushkova and famous archeologist Nikolay Ovcharov.
The miraculous rock formations near the northwest Bulgarian town of Belogradchik are again in second place in the global campaign to select the world's new Seven Wonders. They are now only behind Serbia's Davolja Varos ("Devil's Cave").
The initiative committee in support of the Belogradchik Rocks headed by the Mayor of the Belogradchik Municipality, Emil Tsankov, is urging all Bulgarians and Bulgaria lovers to vote for the Bulgarian bidder on the website of the campaign, new7wonders.com.
Bulgaria's capital Sofia is one of the 25 current nominees to become the official host for the declaration of the New Seven Wonders of Nature event in 2011.
The city is competing with locations such as Montreal, Las Vegas, Santiago, Dublin, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Manila and others, and even more can be nominated.
