Water cascade down the stairs of the "Kamenica"

The water cascade running down the steps in the Kamenitza area of Plovdiv is an urban landscaping feature: a flight of steps over which water flows in successive tiers, set into the city's public space. It is a small, largely decorative spot, pleasant as a brief pause during a walk through town.

What to see and practical The water spilling over the steps creates a cool, photogenic corner, especially welcome on hot summer days. It is not a destination to make a special trip for, but rather a detail to discover along the way. It lies in Plovdiv and is easily combined with the major landmarks nearby — the Old Town, the viewpoint hills, and the Roman sites. Whether the cascade is running depends on the season and upkeep, so its appearance can vary.
