The town of Smolyan (34.641 inhabitants, 850-1050 m above sea level) is scattered in the narrow gorge of the river Cherna, in the most beautiful part of the Rhodopes. It is about 260 Km away from Sofia, 103 Km from Plovdiv and 16 Km south of the resort Pamporovo. In 1960 the three neighbouring villages of Smolyan, Raikovo and Ustovo merged in a town, which was named Smolyan. Smolyan Residential area (the highest) is the successor of the vanished village of Ezerovo, which was situated 3 Km above the town, amidst the Smolyan lakes. The Turks attempt to convert the native population to Mohammedanism (17th century), some of the inhabitants were killed, others ran to the mountains and those who adopted the Muslim religion populated the areas along Cherna River. The name of Smolyan was given to this neighbourhood after the Liberation and it came out of the name of the Slavonic tribe of Smoleni. Raikovo residential area developed as a craftsmanship village. Ustovo residential area became an important market centre.
