Overview

  • Discover the heart of ancient Sofia at your own pace with an audio walk written by a Sofia local and narrated by a real human voice, not AI. Start at the golden domes of Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, continue to the 6th-century Church of St Sofia that gave the city its name, and finish at the Rotunda of St George, a Roman-era church hidden in a courtyard among government buildings.

    No app to install: open the link on your phone, put your headphones in and press play. The audio pauses between stops, so you walk and listen without rushing. Allow 20 to 40 minutes, depending on your pace.
