Take a break from pounding the city streets and rest up in the leafy Sofia City Garden, with its cafés, swings, flowerbeds and lovely fountain, where old men gather to play chess.

The City Garden is in a prime location, situated just on the other side of the street to the National Art Gallery. It is surrounded also by the City Gallery, The national theater, the Bulgarian National Bank and the Ministry of Deffence.

One can easily recognize the park as there are fountains with a sculpture of a female dancer in front of the National Theatre.

Address: Knyaz Alexander Batemberg I Sqr.
