Zhitolyub Izvor (Yellow Lover Spring).
The spring is one of the largest karst springs in the country and is the offspring of two underground rivers. The sinkholes receive part of the waters of the Petrenska and Proboynitsa rivers, which pass through the water floors of the Temnata Dupka cave and flow through a narrow siphon into the spring at the foot of the rocks. During torrential rains, up to 1200 liters per second pass through it.
