Local GuideThe local guide to Sofia
Ah, Sofia! It's this charming mix of ancient and modern. Hit up Alexander Nevsky Cathedral early morning – trust me, the light is magical. Locals do this head-nod thing backwards for "yes" and forwards for "no" which catches tourists off guard! For coffee culture, grab banitsa (cheesy pastry) with boza (fermented drink) for breakfast like locals do. Vitosha Boulevard is great for people-watching, but the real gems are in the side streets. And don't miss Vitosha mountain – locals hop on the lift for quick hikes even after work.
