Touring Bulgaria in 2023 — my firsthand story.

Sofia, Rila and Plovdiv

During my February 2023 trip, I spent time exploring Sofia and wrote about its history, food, and nightlife. My original journal also describes the journey toward Rila Monastery and a visit to Plovdiv, where I was particularly interested in the city’s surviving Roman and Ottoman history. The photographs on this page come from that original travel article.

Photographs and future chapters

I’m gradually working through my personal photo and video archive to add more of the experiences behind this destination. This is a living page, not a finished guide.
