Sofia Highlights Walking Tour with a Visit
to the Old Observatory
Aperçu du circuit
This unique walking experience moves swiftly through Sofia's archaeological and historical heart. We then trade the dense urban core for a green refuge as we enter Boris’ Garden, known affectionately as 'The Lungs of Sofia', where nature meets national heritage.
The adventure culminates with exclusive access to the University Astronomical Observatory, one of the oldest astronomical institutions in the Balkans. You will receive a rare guided tour of this pioneering scientific complex, encountering historic instruments like the still-functional 15.2cm Grubb Refractor. If the weather allows, you will have the extraordinary opportunity to look into the night sky through an original telescope, connecting directly with the stars that inspired Bulgaria's first modern scientists.
This is the perfect tour for the intellectual traveler, offering a deep dive into history, nature, and the cosmos in a powerful, high-value, 4-hour sprint.
