Aleksander Nevski Church
Fountain in front of the Museum of CultureWe spent the day exploring Sofia which included walking around several markets, the second hand market had some interesting antiques but the prices were very steep. For lunch we ate a buffet in a nice organic vegetarian café which cost the equivalent of 3.5 euros each. Both of us ordered jasmine tea , Cass was busy picking bits of the jasmine out of her teeth and mouth it was only when Bek went to drink her tea that she realised Cass hadn’t removed her strainer from the mug lol. We also visited the huge Russian style Aleksander Nevski church. Like many attractions in Eastern Europe they charged for the use of a camera and as always we declined. Inside the church there were huge brass chandeliers as well as ornate marble structures.
At night we returned to our decrepit 1960’s communist style campsite where most of the buildings had been demolished and those that hadn’t were being used for prostitution. The prostitutes were outside the campsite on the highway and were picking men up on a rotation basis. The bathroom didn’t have a lock and it was generally foul, the tiles were broken, the place filthy, there was no shower head, the toilet didn’t flush and there were slugs and earwigs crawling on the floor.
