Very beautiful church in the centre of Sofia, if you take the Sofia tour you will also learn about the history of the church.
This church is reminiscient of the Alexander Nevsky church with a beautiful exterior. I didn't see the inside. Visit around mid day for great photos from the square behind the church.
This church is smaller than St. Alexander Nevski. Nevertheless, it has interesting artwork. You will enjoy seeing both the outside and the inside of this church.
Church is great, Well organized. In the church are relices of King Stefan Milutin. In front of the Church you can bay for a cuples of Leva one Churchs money.
I say unforgettable since we stayed at the Sheraton which is located just in front of the church. The church is located on one of the edges of Vitosha boulevard on the crossing with Stambolivski Boulvard. It is small compared to the Nevski Cathedral but equally as impressive.
The area around this church wil make you understand how different religions can cohabit peacefully. In few squared metres we can find a hortodox church, a catholic church, a synagogue and a mosque. Plus the church itself is very nice. I enjoyed more the inside than the outside, very rich and in the typical hortodox style. Not to be missed!
Rebuilt after an assasination attempt at the beginning of the 20th century, the inside of the church is richly decorated. Very popular for Sunday weddings (the name means St Sunday) visits are still possible during the wedding and you get to enjoy the richness of the music and the wedding costumes as well
St Nedelja Church is right in the centre of Sofia. It was built in 1863 on the site of a medieval church, which itself was built on the roman town of Serdica. St Nedelja (Sunday) church is a typical neo-Byzantine orthodox church with a squat dome. Inside the walls are covered in beautiful blue and gold frescos. Light pours in through the central dome, which looks particularly good through a haze of incense. The only thing written in English is a plaque outside which mentions the bombing in 1925 which killed 150 and destroyed most of the church.
Ornate Orthodox Church, functional so you will see people coming in for prayer not sight-seeing. No English information available which was a little frustrating as the church has historical significance.
Located at the bottom end of Vitosha Boulevard it is in a central square and certainly makes an impression as you make your way round from the Court of Justice. Well worth a visit and some love photo opportunities of the church and the square. A good starting point for your exploration of the 'must see' sights of the city.
