      Oh boy! Wizz must have really upset you? I always find that these budget airlines are great when things go to plan but if they don't then you're pretty much on your own! Wonderful city, different from Plovdiv but still very interesting.

    2 weeks before I go. Looking forward to it and lots of the sights seem free

      Yeah most of them were free which helps if you're on a budget. Thanks for watching and have a fantastic trip!

    Hi Matt. I've been to Bulgaria but I've never been to its capital properly, only passing by, so it was good to see it on your video. It's fascinating that even nowadays they still keep discovering the remnants of the times gone by underground. It still doesn't cease to amaze me how well developed the Ancient Roman civilisation was, they even tried to do underfloor heating using the natural hot springs! It's cool l that they leave it all around integrated with the life of the city.

      Hey Olga, I wonder how many Roman places we're yet to discover - it seems that they were everywhere! So interesting! Yes I love how they've done it too, it's certainly a great feature of that underground station, I mean if you have a few minutes to kill then you can check out some of that lost city whilst you're waiting for your train. I really enjoyed my visit to Sofia, didn't really know what to expect but it really grew on me throughout the day.

    This intro is 🔥🔥🔥The close ups of the guards, the music, the drone shot (at golden hour?). I couldn't image finding all of these amazing ruins when developing Sofia. Nice luck seeing the changing of the guards. Not often you can get thermal water while walking around a capital city. The Aleksandar Nevski cathedral is quite impressive!

      Thanks very much, yes those drone shots were at the end of the day - kinda by accident really but when I got the drone up I realised that the time of day was really adding to the shots. Glad you liked the intro 😄

    Hello Matt! You missed another ancient sub-street level place while walking right past it - the necropolis under St. Sophia church dating back to 4th century. The entrance is inside the church and is opened to the public for small fee. Not many people know about this place so it's OK that you missed it.

    • @MattWhitingsEurope
      @MattWhitingsEurope  11 месяцев назад

      Ah what a shame, I would have loved to visit it - sounds like my kind of place. Thanks for pointing it out, if I return I'll try and check it out. 👍

    Another interesting video Matt - Sofia is an amazing city by the looks of it.

      Glad you enjoyed it! Yes it's one you don't hear about too much but it's a fascinating place.

    Excellent video Matt, subscribed to your channel great content.
    I want to do a day trip flight to a Balkan city, would you recommend Sofia or Bucharest?

    • @MattWhitingsEurope
      @MattWhitingsEurope  11 месяцев назад

      Thanks very much, Lewis. Glad you're enjoying the videos! I think they're both wonderful cities, I don't think you can go wrong with either. You'll certainly get a flavour if you stay for a day but consider 2-3 if you want to see all the sights. Hope that helps!
