The construction of the panoramic tower is an initiative of Adelin Golev and Danail Hadzhiev from the local tourist association. The young people succeeded in implementing their idea for the new tourist attraction near Mogilitsa. They built the tower with the help of supporters, friends, locals and tourists who have visited the Rhodope Mountains over the years. The view from the top is unique, we expect it to become one of the leading tourist attractions in the area, Adelin Golev said.

Several tourist routes lead to the panoramic tower, Mogilitsa Mayor Milko Kissov noted. According to him, in the area of Mogilitsa and the neighbouring villages, an increase in tourist flow is already evident at the beginning of the summer season. July and August are expected to be the busiest months for hotels and accommodation facilities along the upper Arda River.  

One of the preferred tourist attractions near Mogilitsa is the panoramic platform "The Peak", which was opened in 2020. This is the only panoramic platform with a glass floor in the Balkans, Adelin Golev pointed out. "The Peak" is now also becoming an exciting place for marriage proposals, more than ten couples have chosen the platform for the scene of this fateful moment, Milko Kissov said.
