Sofia, the capital of
Bulgaria, is one of the oldest cities in Europe- around seventy centuries old, with some
of the most amazing sights to see in this part of the world. It’s a city with a
chequered past ruled by the Ottomans, by the communists- and nowruled by hordes of pleasure-seeking tourists.And with good reason too.Sofia offers, even though this may sound pretty
clichéd,something for everybody. The city
has some of East Europe best architecture - beautiful cathedrals and mosques, including
the famous Aleksander Nevski Cathedral, busy marketplaces and a vibrant nightlife, and
even a ski resort - Mount Vitosha - right next door. Little wonder then, that tourists
visiting Bulgaria don’t feel the need to go beyond the capital.
