Trip to Sofia

One of the most memorable moments of your trip is a trip to a restaurant. It's worth visiting a place like Le Petit Paris for these moments. The setting here is elegant in French, the menu is full of various delicacies, including a pork knuckle with a bone, a variety of salads, and steaks of varying degrees of frying. Prices here are a little above average.

During a long trip, we should not forget to make small stops for a walk and rest, and the first place where we will slow down today is the picturesque park "Liberty Island". Incredibly quiet and beautiful place, well-groomed alleys, neat trees and bushes, also the park is decorated with small figures of dinosaurs, which looks very funny from the outside.

Another beautiful monument of ancient architecture, which met on our way, will be the fortress "Perister". The area around it is beautifully organized and well maintained, and all the important objects here lead to tidy paths and stairs. There are both preserved buildings and those that have already been largely destroyed. Since the fortress is located on a hill, it offers truly fascinating landscapes.

After rather long excursions you need to rest a little and gain strength for the rest of the day. It's worth stopping by on the way to a small restaurant called Riben Restaurant. The institution specializes in fish dishes. Among the great variety is shrimp fried in butter with garlic and spices, and carp steak with spices and sauce.

Among the numerous monuments of medieval and ancient architecture in Bulgaria there are also objects of later epochs, among which is the royal residence of Tsarska Bistritsa, built in the late 19th century. The main feature of the residence, of course, is the interior decoration - tiled stoves covered with Austrian tiles, decorated with national carved patterns of columns and ceilings, as well as numerous trophies of the royal family hung on the walls. It is worth saying that the work schedule of the facility is not very convenient, namely on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the entrance is closed for tourists.

To have a dinner after a long trip you can go to the restaurant "Friends". The atmosphere here is generally pleasant, clients can choose to spend time on a small, furnished terrace or in a cosy room. There are many Bulgarian dishes on the menu, which are dominated by national salads, soups, and fried meat with vegetables and spices.

One of the pleasant features of the city of Sofia is a fairly large number of diverse parks, green areas and squares, where locals and tourists spend their evenings, and Yuzhen Park is one of these places. I must say that it is very popular, and in the evening it is visited by quite a large number of tourists, and this is not surprising, because it is really very beautiful, especially during sunset.

Today we have traveled quite a long way, we have seen many different historical places, as well as incredible natural beauties. Our trip has brought us to the capital, tomorrow we plan to take a little look around and go back to Plovdiv.
