SOFIA Dramatically ringed by the Balkan Mountains to the north and the Vitosha Mountains to the south, Sofia stands on an open plain 550m (1804ft) above sea level in western Bulgaria. Although its neo-classical Stalinist architecture is prominent, visitors to Sofia will love its side streets and century-old commercial quarter, tree-lined boulevards and balconied buildings by 19th-century Russian and Viennese architects. Locals meet for coffee at open-air cafés in the park, the vast bazaar offers an array of pickles and farm produce, and new designer boutiques keep springing up in the city centre. Shoppers queue to board Sofia's rattling trams while folk musicians serenade the metro users. Central Sofia boasts a clutch of ancient and neo-Byzantine Orthodox churches, and one functioning mosque, virtually all that remains of 500 years of Ottoman domination. Originally known as Serdica, Sofia was founded 3000 years ago and is still famous for its thermal springs, and an early centre of Christianity. The Turks conquered the city in 1382, but when ousted in 1878, Sofia became the capital and its grand boulevards were constructed.

A trip in June 2009 across the Balkan range of mountains, which runs across the country. The Balkans reach Alpine heights where, past dense forests, nothing grows but thin grass. The trip covers Veliko Tranovo, the medieval capital of Bulgaria, known for its astounding scenery and gigantic fortress. It also covers the town of Kazanlak, the biggest town in the Valley of the Roses - the center of the rose oil industry in Bulgaria. Many beautifully painted Thracian tombs, dating 1600 years ago, were found in that area. The journey continues through the two major mountain passes across the Balkan range - Shipka and Troyan, the charming Troyan Monastery and the quaint historic villages of Arbanasi and Koprivshtitsa.
