The Sofia Center Tour will guide you along 35 of the most beautiful buildings in the central part of Sofia. You will get to know who lived in these buildings, and what purpose they served or still serve. We will also tell you about the architectural style and the beautiful ornaments that were used to decorate the buildings. You will visit many buildings in the architectural styles of Neo-Baroque, Art Nouveau, Neo-Renaissance, Bulgarian Revival, and more.

During this tour, you will get to know the Bulgarian Ford, who went from being a shepherd to becoming an owner of two factories in confectionery, one in Sofia and one in Burgas. This tour will also tell the story of a Bulgarian general who miraculously survived the attack on the Holy Sunday Church but left him blind in his right eye for the rest of his life. You will also learn about a bank that set the task of serving the needs of the poor and who helped a Jewish bank survive after a law was passed that forbids persons of Jewish origin to participate in credit companies.
