Ahhh, Sofia-means Wisdom.
Its the second oldest city after Athens.
The Bulgarian government foiled Hitler by using diversionary tactics to save their Jews from being sent away. Clever.
How clever are Bulgarians, when I was in Antarctica, they were the ones that discovered the hole in the Ozone layer.
In the center of town, all the religions
had a place of worship in an area close to each other. Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Orthodox, and now McDonalds for the latest worship $$.
Went to the opera and symphony. Super.
As its a crossroads, it had many invaders:
Thraceans- garlic and wine
Slavic-farmers with bread
Bulgars-nomadic, meat and dairy
Romans-spices
Ottomans-sweets
Communism- standard menus
