The Friday Photo: Sofia Cathedral
Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, isn’t on many people’s bucket lists. But the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, an enormous Byzantine revival edifice erected to celebrate the liberation of Bulgaria from Ottoman rule in 1878, is as splendid on the inside as it is on the outside. And that is pretty splendid.
beautiful – especially the dusting of snow.
Thank you!
Oddly enough, it is on my bucket list as is all of Eastern Europe.
The churches are seriously amazing. And I suspect if you give the city time, get to know locals, and go when it’s not too chilly, Sofia could grow on you too.
Lovely photo! Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is very beautiful, especially at night time.
