Dia 57 - Sofia III

Long walking. Longas caminhadas.

sunny 28 °C

Today I went walking through Vitosha street, wishing to go to Mina's church that could be interesting, since interesting places in the center of the I had seen almost all of them.

Fist stop: National Palace of Culture'
I had been here before, but I didn't go inside since I believed that this place it would be a shopping center (mall).

After climbing a mountain I found Mina's Church, that it was closed for repairs after some pishings actions.

Feeling dissapointed since I tought that this church would be an ancient building.
But anyway it was a goal to climb one mountain and go walking almost outside the city in a beautiful day of European spring, (almost summer)

Well this was my morning, now looking for place to eat, some typical Bulgarian dishe, I found a familiar restaurant, and I choose one of the foods that I didn't know what it would be because it was just in Bulgarish.

It was named Copriva with rice, copriva it is a kind of spinach, I eat mixed with yougourt, that it is the way to eat this food. Very Nice.

After a relax time in the B and B until 4 PM, I went outside to walk.

I went walking following the Tram Rails that leads to popular area in Sofia
