Early spring in Sofia, Bulgaria

While it might not be Europe’s most popular destination, Sofia offers a surprisingly rich and rewarding experience for curious travelers. The city is located at the foot of Mount Vitosha, and blends layers of history—from Roman ruins to Ottoman mosques and Soviet-era architecture—with a vibrant, evolving culture. 

The food scene is a standout, with cozy taverns serving hearty dishes like banitsa, shopska salad, and slow-roasted meats, alongside modern spots reimagining traditional Bulgarian flavors. 

Sofia’s charm lies in its contrasts: ancient churches beside trendy cafés, quiet parks near bustling markets. 

Stay tuned—my Sofia travel guides are coming soon!

Early spring in Sofia, Bulgaria

While it might not be Europe’s most popular destination, Sofia offers a surprisingly rich and rewarding experience for curious travelers. The city is located at the foot of Mount Vitosha, and blends layers of history—from Roman ruins to Ottoman mosques and Soviet-era architecture—with a vibrant, evolving culture. 

The food scene is a standout, with cozy taverns serving hearty dishes like banitsa, shopska salad, and slow-roasted meats, alongside modern spots reimagining traditional Bulgarian flavors. 

Sofia’s charm lies in its contrasts: ancient churches beside trendy cafés, quiet parks near bustling markets.
