On Midsummer Day, 24 June 2011, Sofiyska Voda invited Sofia citizens at the University Botanical Garden to celebrate sun, herbs and water. Drop and Droplet welcomed the visitors in the cool garden of fragrant plants and curative herbs. Children and adults alike listened to the stories about the ancient traditional rituals on this day. Water in rivers and wells is said to be curative on Midsummer Day because the sun is said to have bathed in it.
