Highlights

Discover Sofia through the lens of a working film director. Join Martin — award-winning filmmaker, published photographer, and daily street shooter — for an intimate photography walk through the city's most alive and least-photographed streets. We start at the iconic Hotel Balkan on Sveta Nedelya Square and move through the Area of Tolerance — one of Europe's most quietly remarkable urban spaces, where a Mosque, a Synagogue, and a Cathedral stand within metres of each other. From there we enter the Women's Market (Zhenski Pazar), Sofia's oldest open-air market founded in 1878, teeming with vendors, characters, and the kind of light that turns an ordinary frame into something cinematic. We hunt the raw backstreets surrounding the market, and finish with a shared edit over coffee — included. This is not a sightseeing tour. It's a street photography walk led by someone who shoots these streets every single day. You'll leave with real images, a sharper eye, and a genuine feel for Sofia.

About Sofia

Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, lies below Vitosha mountain, mixing Roman ruins, golden-domed churches, mineral springs and a busy café culture.

Sofia sits in a high basin at the foot of Mount Vitosha, and its centre layers Roman Serdica, Orthodox Bulgaria and the Ottoman and Soviet eras. The gold-domed Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, completed in the early twentieth century, is the city's best-known building. Close by are the fourth-century rotunda of St George, the Banya Bashi Mosque and the remains of Roman streets that show through glass in the metro stations.

Top-ranked sights in Sofia: Rila Monastery, Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, Ivan Vazov National Theatre.
