Sofia-Sofia's city centre is an eclectic mix of architectural styles, largely rebuilt after WWII bombings and complete with a yellow brick boulevard. Etâr Ethnographic Village Museum-One of the more appealing attractions in central Bulgaria is this delightful museum. The village is designed in a style typical of the Bulgarian national revival period (18th and 19th centuries) and is spread over seven hectares (17 acres) of grass and trees. Madara National Historical & Archaeological Reserve- The original bas-relief, carved in a viva-Bulgaria fever onto a 100m (328ft) cliff in the 8th century, is at the superb Madara archaeological reserve. There is also an intriguing rock chapel, an open-air cave wall, and a mountain-top fort with views of Shumen. Rozhen Monastery-This hilltop monastery was originally built in 1217. It's an atmospheric place, with woodcarvings and a mural-filled church. Rila Mountains -The majestic Rila Mountains south of Sofia are a hiker's dream. Nestling in a narrow valley, Rila Monastery helped to keep Bulgarian culture alive during the dark age of Turkish rule from the 15th to the 19th centuries. The monastery was founded by Ivan Rilski in 927 and served as a retreat for hermits.
