4 days in Sofia Itinerary

St. Alexander Nevski Cathedral and Vitosha Boulevard will appeal to history buffs. Do your shopping at Format Jewelry, Objects & Interiors and Brave Creation. Get out of town with these interesting Sofia side-trips: Pernik (Underground Mining Museum & Regional History Museum Pernik), History Museum (in Pazardzhik) and Borovets Ski Resort (in Borovets). There's still lots to do: get curious at Museum of illusions Sofia, get engrossed in the history at National Institute of Archaeology with Museum, explore the world behind art at The Red Flat, and get a taste of the local shopping with Zelena gallery.
