Sofia sits right at the foot of Mount Vitosha, so hiking trails and ski slopes are under an hour from the city center. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, with its gilded domes, visually sums up the city's layered history — Roman, Ottoman, and Socialist alongside the modern day. It's also one of Europe's most affordable capitals to visit without sacrificing cultural depth.
