Sofia is my native city. Nice, Vienna type center, beautiful administrative buildings end of the 19th, beginning 20th century. Archaeological museum - ancient artefacts Roman, pre-historic, golden treasures, 120 years of existance. National historical museum - the oldest processed gold in Europe from the eolotic era; Thracian gold treasures like stars in the sky - priceless from 4th c. BC; Boyana church - UNESCO world heritage. A lot of good night clubs downtown with live music. parks and gardens, very green center. Vitosha mountain within 20 minutes 2225 m. high.

I am a native :) I can tell you that it is not the best city neither the cleanest or the safest - yet it is my birth town and I do like it anyway :D
The night life in Sofia is 24/7, there are a lot of restaurants with good food and a lot of shops /not all of them with good price though/
if you like cultural life - we have great history and great museums /not all r in sofia unfortunately :)/
the city is growing and i must say even i get surprised ;)

in the centre of the city you see all remercable places but it suits to go to the national museum which is at the one of the suburbs - boyana and there is a small church with remarcable paintings listed in unesco world heritage ..

I love this city, it is very friendly for tourist if compare to software. Everything is just a few steps away coffee shops/eating joints. People are very helpful and friendly. Language is a bit of a barrier I agree but for anything they have English info so visiting sights around the city is easy. Eating out is not a problem at all in any restaurant you can ask for English menu. Comparatively to some countries we have been Sofia is not that expensive, of course staying in a 3-5 star hotel anywhere in the world would always be pricey. So I suggest for people who want to visit service apartment is a very good option in this city. We stayed in AIK Service apartment, our contact is Krasi she is very kind and most helpful. Hence to all type of traveler who's planning, happy journey to Sofia.
