Short trip to Sofia among historical atmospheres and modernity

An unmissable stop during a tour in Sofia is certainly the beautiful Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, whose golden and green domes stand out in the center of the square of the same name. Hold your breath because the beauty of the interior is no exception: the interior of the Church of Saint Nedelja, in the city center, near the shopping boulevard, are wonderful. In Sofia, a crossroads of different cultures, you can also enter the beautiful Mosque and even visit the ruins of a pagan temple, the Church of Saint George. Did you know that Sofia is one of the cheapest capitals in Europe? You will be tempted to eat the specialties of his kitchen as much as you can!

Sofia

The two souls of a city

The capital of Bulgaria is often overlooked by hasty tourists seeking the coast or ski lifts, who miss out on this generous and welcoming city. Sofia is certainly not a large metropolis, but it is a young and modern city where old buildings coexist with modern structures: Orthodox cathedrals, Ottoman mosques and monuments to the Red Army share the scene with shopping centres and hotels. It also seems to be one of the least expensive cities in Europe: take advantage of it!
