 Sofia is the nation's capital as well as the political, economic and cultural centre. It is located in the Sofia Basin surrounded by mountains, in the Midwestern Bulgaria. Sofia is a garden city well-known for its fantastic views. Its streets, squares, uptowns are charmingly shy, half-hidden behind green leafy trees. The downtown is densely wooded; boulevards, lush lawn and gardens are dotted here and there; the white or buff buildings, beautiful flowers and green trees set each other off, making a spectacular picture. The noted attractions here attract many tourists all over the world, such as St. Sophia, Dimitrov Mausoleum, Parliament Mansion and National Gallery.

 Plovdiv is the second largest city of Bulgaria. It is about 120 kilometers southeast from the capital Sofia. It is along the Belgrade-Istanbul Railway, so it was once an important trade centre between Europe and Asia. Moreover, it is also an ancient cultural city with many historic sites, such as History Museum displaying the stone inscriptions of the Roman Empire, about 2000 years old city wall and outdoor amphitheater.
