Municipality Elhovo

It borders the Topolovgrad municipality, District of Haskovo, to the southwest, the Bolyarovo municipality to the east, the Republic of Turkey to the southeast, and the Tounja municipality to the north.
The total territory of the Elhovo municipality is 708 sq. km and encompasses 22 settlements - 1 town and 21 villages, 11 of which are mayoralties. The mayoralties are the villages of: Granitovo, Malak Manastir, Boyanovo, Melnitsa, Lessovo, Izgrev, Pchela, Malomirovo, Kirilovo, Razdel and Zhrebino.
Almost all persons living in the villages are their permanent residents. This is a result of the emergence of chances for private initiative.
