Sofia, Bulgaria – What to do?

In a week I will be flying to Sofia, Bulgaria to speak at a day-long Usability Seminar. I will be spending two extra days (April 15-16) to visit, sightsee, eat, and other activities of travel. Thing is, I have no clue what to do. I welcome suggestions, and if by chance any peterme.com readers live there, I’m happy to meet up!

  1. Glad you are coming to Sofia 🙂

    wikitravel has a decent article about Sofia:

    There is also this blog http://sosofia.com/ that writes about local attractions.

    I’d strongly recommend going on trip out of Sofia – to Plovdiv or Rila Monastery for example. Sofia is not the most interesting part of Bulgaria in my opinion.

  2. my wife and i visited bulgaria a few years ago. wished we had seen the rila monastery. bulgari was an interesting place to see, rich in history. we stayed in veliko tarnovo and plovdiv on our way to istanbul from transylvania. hope you had a good time.
