This iconic street offers a wide array of iconic fashion label stores and several bars and restaurants.

Winter in Sofia

Sofia is well known for its Christmas market. It sits in Brosiova Gradina and it is a small yet very charming market for holiday gifts, arts and crafts. Because of the proximity of Mount Vitosha, skiing and snowboarding are quite close at hand, and from the city center are only about 30 to 40 minutes away. Another staple of this city is its amazing coffee scene. There may be no better way to spend a cold winter afternoon than by sipping on artisanal coffee concoctions.

We leased a sedan to drive from Sofia to Skopje and back over four days. Everything was easy and straightforward. The reps at the T2 desk were very helpful, too, providing a translation of my driving licence, which proved very useful at the border crossing. The car we got was brand new and got us everywhere we needed to go with no issues. Very good value for money.
