Sofia is the capital of Bulgaria. It is a city rich in culture and history. Sofia is the only city in Europe that has places of worship of four different major religions located close to each other. The city lights are spectacular during the night and the days are sunny and perfect for hiking in the nearby mountains. The climate is warm and temperate. Although Bulgarian is the native language in the country, but more than 50 percent of the population of Sofia speaks English.
Most important piece of advice I’d give to newcomers is to choose their accommodation in close proximity to the underground or any big shopping mall. Also, consider practicing Bulgarian before or make sure you have access to a dictionary or have a friend that is familiar with the language and you can trust.
