FOR THOSE WHO WNAT`S TO DISCOVER
🇧🇬 🇧🇬 🇧🇬 🇧🇬 🇧🇬 🇧🇬 🇧🇬 SOFIA, BULGARIA

🌲🎊🎀🎉 5 Bulgarian Christmas facts and traditions

☃️❄️It is winter, and for the Bulgarians, it is time to celebrate.
Back in the day when most Bulgarians were dealing with agriculture and livestock breeding, there was a lot of free time in winter. In those times, winter would start with Dimitrovden (St Dimitar’s Day) and end with Gergiovden (St. George’s day). During this time of year, we celebrate tons of days dedicated to saints, name days, and of course, Christmas.

Christmas is one of the most loved holidays in Bulgaria and a time when families get together. In Bulgaria, just like everywhere else around the globe, the Christmas spirit is here, and we are ready to celebrate. Here are some of the most popular facts and traditions about Christmas in Bulgaria:

✅1. We celebrate Christmas on the 25th of December.
Bulgarians are mainly Eastern Orthodox, but we follow the Gregorian calendar, and for us, Christmas is on the 25th of December. Other Eastern Orthodox countries like Russia or Serbia, for example, celebrate Christmas on the 7th of January.

✅2. Christmas in Bulgaria lasts three days!
Starting on the 25th, when we believe Jesus Christ was born. Тhe following two days, we honor the people who carry the names Hristo, Hristina, and Joseph (Josif) on the 26th and people with the names Stefan, Stoyan, Stefka on the 27 th.

✅3. Christmas follows the last day of the fasts – the 24th or Christmas Eve.
On Christmas Eve, we eat only vegan dishes (just like during the fasts), and they have to be an odd number. We prepare delicious things like stuffed peppers with rice or beans, grape leaves stuffed with rice, pumpkin dishes, and traditional bread. The bread usually contains fortunes, which will reveal what the next year holds for each member of the family. After dinner is finished, we do not put away the dishes. They stay on the table for the whole night.

✅4. After Christmas Eve dinner at about 12 o’clock, another tradition takes place in Bulgaria – Koleduvane.
Koleduvane is a ritual, which happens at midnight on the 24th of December. After it is done, we know that Christmas is here, and Jesus Christ was born. Only young and single men are allowed to take part in "Koleduvane." They gather in the house of the man leading the group all dressed up in unique clothes. Once they are all together, they start going from house to house singing Christmas carols.

✅5. Christmas in Bulgaria is usually spent with family and loved ones.
Of course, we have a tree and presents, which is the most exciting part of еverybody. On Christmas day, after everyone has received their gift, we usually get together for a family meal. This would contain meat, and traditionally this would be pork. However, nowadays, there is more variety.

🤩Now you know the Bulgarians a little bit better. 🙂 We have unusual customs and traditions, and most of them we keep alive. You will learn a lot more about the way we celebrate if you join us and visit Sofia at this time of the year.

🇧🇬 36 Hours in... Sofia
* * What to Do, How to Do It and Where to Do It

😎What to do on a short break to Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, including Historical Places, Top Spots for Foodies and Fans of Fun and Clubbing 🍻🍷🎷🎼🎹

👑🎖🎭🚜☎️ Bulgaria is not a country that has enjoyed the warmth of good publicity in recent years. Its admission to the EU was seized upon by mud-slingers keen to stoke fears of a looming UK invasion of Bulgarians. In the end, however, the exodus of Eastern Europeans never happened - and a trip to the capital of Sofia may yield a few clues as to why.

🏣🏠💒⛪️⛩🛤 From the air, the cityscape is not immediately inspiring. Rows of Soviet-era buildings – many in a state of disrepair - pepper the fringes of the city. Yet at the center Ottoman mosques sit side by side with grand Stalinist architecture, and artists find spaces in the cracks in between. This is a proud city that has been sculpted over more than two millennia by Thracian, Roman, Ottoman and Russian influences.

🔥🔥🔥🔥The local drink rakia is a fermented fruit distillate that comes in several varieties, all equally potent. With an average alcohol content of around 40 percent – and maybe double that for the popular homebrew – it is alarmingly drinkable. A glass with salad is typical (and rousing) start to any evening.

🍲🍱🍰🍯The food, meanwhile, is consistently good, and while there remains an impatient disregard for ostentatious presentation, it is possible to eat and drink well for very little.

For this reason, Bulgaria has become a popular go-to for stag and hen parties, but their influence on the capital should not be overstated. The bars and casinos they frequent can be easily avoided, and the best drinking dens are tucked away in this old city.

Day one
10am

Get in a taxi and head straight out of the city to the wealthy suburb of Boyana in the southwest. From here you should make for Boyana church (1-3 Boyansko zero Str, +359 2 959 0939; boyanachurch.org), a 900-year-old private chapel hidden in a copse. Its frescoes are dazzling and the views over Sofia are beautiful.

12pm

Make your way back to the city and ask the taxi driver to drop you at Sofia's centerpiece: the Aleksandâr Nevsky Cathedral (6) (Aleksander Nevski Square;+359 2 988 1704). Dim, hushed and cool, it is 100 years old and, at 174 feet tall, imposingly cavernous.

12.30pm

Wander towards the center of the city down Tsar Osvoboditel, pausing to take in the charming bauble-capped Saint Nikolas Russian church (Tsar Osvoboditel; +359 2 986 2715) on your way. Head to the very center and pause for a drink in the sun outside the gilded Ivan Vazov National Theatre (7).

3pm

Make for the Rotunda of St George (8) (Sveta Nedelya 5) - the oldest monument in Sofia. This early Christian red brick rotunda is hidden in a courtyard dates from the fourth century when it was a pagan temple. It is itself a potted history of the city, housing layers of frescoes dating back to the 10th century.


4pm

Around the corner from the Rotunda, you'll find the National Archaeological Museum (9) (2 Saborna, +359 2 988 24 06, naim.bg) - easy enough to stumble on because of the smattering of stone relics that litter its fringes. The facade of the museum belongs to a 15th century Ottoman Empire mosque, and its interior holds artifacts from the many empires of old that have occupied the city.

5pm

The Hagia Sophia Church (10) (Aya Sofya Square; hagiasophia.com) is the landmark that gave Sofia its name, and this angular 6th-century landmark has a simple elegance that is a neat contrast to the dramatic Aleksandâr Nevski Cathedral.

7pm

Jump in a taxi and head Hadriganov's Houses (11) (Kozloduy 20, +359 2 931 3148, kashtite.com), kitsch but charming restaurant serving traditional Bulgarian fare. Built-in 1866 and spread across four restored houses, the stylings are theatrical but the food is good. Three-course meal £40.

9pm

Avoid the stag parties at the Bavarian beer hall and head to the Thirsty Dragon (12) (13 Mart Street; +359 2 964 06 40) instead - a pub that also sells very fine margaritas which can be had for around £2.

Day two
10am

Start the day with a visit to the Central Market Hall (13) (Maria Louise Blvd; +359 2 917 6106) to pick up some Bulgarian cured meats and cheese for your friends and family.

11am

There's enough time to drop into the natural history museum (1 Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd; +359 2 987 4195; nmnhs.com) and witness its fantastic assortment of taxidermy that includes a stuffed bear, a two-headed tortoise and hundreds of birds. Entry £2.

12pm

At the other end of the scale from the aforementioned Hadriganov's Houses comes Made In Home (14) (Angel Kanchev 30A, +35 87 688 4014; three courses £30) - a modern, hipster-ish restaurant with doors for tables and an ever-changing menu. Antonio Banderas is reputedly a fan.

City checklist
Spring is a fine time to visit Bulgaria when its boulevards are peppered with flowers and pavement cafes. In winter tourists face freezing temperatures.

Taxis are the best way to get around the city and are cheap to hire at around 30p a kilometer.

In restaurants and taxis, tipping is generally expected. Rounding up is sufficient.

Hello Sofia`s and Bulgaria Fans 😀

🇧🇬 If you visiting Sofia in the next few weeks, or just before Christmas, you can spend a Day - Ice Skating

Every year the "Ariana Lake" in the Borisova Garden in Sofia becomes the biggest open-air ice rink on the Balkans. It’s bold to say “open-air” because it’s wrapped in the fabric on all sides, however the idea is still pretty interesting. It is located in a central and very accessible place in Sofia so it’s the perfect spot for a fun hour or two with friends.

The ice rink opens sometime from December until March/April 2018. In the summer the ice is gone and the Ariana lake is filled with water again where you can still enjoy it by renting a pedalo or a boat.

Where: On the entrance of the Borisova Garden near Orlov bridge
When: opens in December 2018 (no set date), check for updates on their page
Price: Entrance – 5 BGN (2,50 EUR), Ice skates rent – 4 BGN (2 EUR)
If you don`t have the skills and you are not a "skating person"
YOU CAN VISIT => ✅ The unique and exquisite "Art House Kuklite” (The Dolls House) Hundreds of dolls live in the Art House “Kuklite” in the heart of Sofia. It’s a unique tourist attraction where you can see literally hundreds of dolls from different times and cultures. Most of them are shown as museum exhibits. You can also make your own doll. Just ask for it.
Where: Str. Tsar Samuil 34, Sofia
When: Tue-Sat, 1 pm – 7 pm
