The old Obrochishte (Consecration) is located on the eastern outskirts of the village of Zaya , about 80 m south of the road, at the exit in the direction of the village of Salasuka .
The consecration - this ancient temple of nature has remained from the pagan times of the Bulgarians. There, next to an ancient and still mighty oak, lies a large stone. On it the people of the village made a sacrifice on a certain day of the year. They made soup from the sacrificial animal and celebrated all night in dances and magical rites.
