Bishop’s Basilica of Philippopolis

If you're looking for an affordable getaway and adventure for two (romantic) or solo, you'll find in this guide all the information you need to have a memorable weekend. Do you enjoy snow sports or want to try skiing or snowboarding? Did you know that there's a ski resort right in the capital, Sofia, on the Vitosha mountain? It's ideal for those with little experience in these sports who don't want to spend a lot experimenting. Or for those who love snow sports and want to explore a new city without the mass tourism found in major European capitals. Did you know that Bulgaria has one of the oldest cities in Europe? I'll show you which city that is and what you can see and do in a day there. In this guide, you'll understand why you should go to Sofia if you have a limited budget, as it's a relatively cheap country. I'll also provide advice and suggestions for spending a day in the snow and engaging in winter sports. Topics covered how to get there, suggestions for where to sleep and what to do and see in one of the oldest cities in Europe. I hope you enjoy it, and happy reading! ;)
