About the village
Village Bohot occurs right after the fall of Bulgaria under the Ottoman yoke. According to the legend nine people, haidouks were banished into the Bohot's Wood which is now declared as a park of Pleven. For how long they had infested the legend doesn't say, but Pleven and the surrounding villages know very well about the feats of the Bohot's rebels. When they got old they requested an amnesty from the turkish government and they received it. Their leader took a wife from the close village of Kashin. And when the other lassies from Kashin saw their friend dressed up with gold and silver they decided to marry the other haidouks. When they started settled live came up the question about the village's name. The elder proposed that they should be overtaken by the night in the nature and the first thing they hear should be the village's name. So did they, and because they were very close to the Kailaka Forest they heard a owl giving out a noise: Boo Boo Booh. And they were all very happy and decided to name the village Buhot.
They lived there shortly and as they were in the forest and there was no land to cultivate they decided to move one kilometer away from the place where Bohot is today. For about 370 years they lived there when the plague came and only 7-8 families survived. These people formed the present village of Bohot. After that in the late period of the Ottoman yoke 41 other families mostly from the Balkan Mountain joined them. During the Russian-Ottoman war (1877-1878) in Bohot was the Headquarters of the commander-in-chief of the Russian Army Nikolay Nikolaevich, and also the 69th military hospital.
Nowadays Bohot is a nice, peaceful village on the edge of the National Park Kailaka, and just 10 kilometers away from the town of Pleven. The population is about 850 people mostly Ortodoxal Christians. Bohot is also famous for the beautiful oak forest and for the canyon of the river Tuchenitsa
