Razlog (Bulgarian: Разлог) is a town in the Blagoevgrad Province in southwestern Bulgaria. It is situated in the Razlog Valley and was first mentioned during the reign of Byzantine emperor Basil II. The town's population actively participated in the Kresna-Razlog and Ilinden-Preobrazhenie Uprising, Razlog itself being liberated from Ottoman rule in 1912. Razlog has developed as a centre of winter tourism in the 1990s and 2000s owing to its favourable position in the vicinity of the Pirin, Rila and Rhodope Mountains.
