Art Gallery Sightseeing Tour in Sofia

1 / 14

Overview

The tour will start in front of the entrance of Alexander Nevsky Cathedral - one of the largest Orthodox cathedrals in Eastern Europe, which is also one of the main attractions in the capital of Bulgaria. Once the group gets together, we will take some time to get to know each other and everyone will have the opportunity to quickly visit the cathedral before we start with the Art Tour and take some pictures.

Then I will take you to a special underground crypt - a museum of Bulgarian icon painting. We'll continue to the National Gallery, which is located in another historical monument of culture - the King's Palace. The following destination is Sofia City Art Gallery.

We continue to a newly opened and modern art gallery - Nova Art Space. Afterwards we will pass the Presidency and enter the tunnels where the Ancient Complex Serdika is located. We end the tour of a secret private gallery, where each of the guests will receive one drink :) - a glass of wine, beer or water.
