Start your day with the aroma of banitsa fresh from the oven, and stroll through markets bursting with cheeses, honey, and mountain herbs. For lunch, indulge in shopska salad and grilled meats, paired with a glass of local Mavrud wine. In the evening, discover Sofia’s rising gastro-scene or cosy up in a traditional mehana (tavern) with folk music and candlelight.
