What To Expect

Saint Nikolas Russian Church (Tsurkva Sveta Nikolai)

Your tour will start from the pearl of Sofia, the beautiful Russian Church, easily recognizable by its notorious golden domes. Immersing yourself into the ancient history of the city, you will pass through Roman ruins and Medieval settlements only to reach the unique amalgamation of cultures and religions that emerged during Ottoman times. Strolling around the historical city center, you will learn to recognize the different architectural styles that are embedded in the buildings around you – from gorgeous royal palaces to Stalin’s monumental ensembles. Get lost in one of the oldest streets in Sofia still teeming with local stories, nostalgy, and romanticism. Take a glimpse inside most of the landmarks, including the oldest still functioning Christian temple in Europe where your guide, who is an art historian, will explain in detail the meaning and symbolism behind the unique wall-paintings inside.
