Eagles' Bridge
Eagles' Bridge is located in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, and is an iconic landmark of the city. The bridge spans the Maritsa River and connects the city's main streets, serving as both a transportation hub and an important attraction for tourists to learn about the history and culture of Sofia. Its name comes from the four majestic bronze eagle sculptures standing at the four corners of the bridge. These eagles symbolize the guardians of freedom and pay tribute to all those who fought for the independence of Bulgaria. The bridge's design is simple yet imposing, featuring a classic European style, and it is surrounded by tree-lined paths and a pleasant environment. Whether day or night, the view of Eagles' Bridge is charming. Especially at night, the lights on the bridge illuminate the sculptures and the bridge structure, creating a solemn atmosphere. The area around the bridge is bustling, with parks, cafes, and main streets lined up one after another, making it an ideal stop for exploring the city.Sofia · 1.5km from downtown
Boyana Church
Located on the outskirts of Sofia, Boyana Cathedral was built from the end of the 10th century to the beginning of the 11th century. The church has two layers of frescoes, the first layer of frescoes has a long history, dating back to the 11th-12th century in the park. The frescoes on the second floor were painted by the artist on the basis of the earlier frescoes. They used superb painting skills to express the outstanding achievements of medieval Bulgarian culture in a complex and true way. The church is therefore known as the "Pearl in the Crown of Sofia".Sofia · 7.5km from downtown

What travellers say about Sofia
M41***2623 September 2026
5.0
The area of the church open to the public is quite small, so visitor numbers are limited. There may be a queue for entry, and it's best to avoid scheduling your visit close to closing time, as you might not get a turn before it closes. In 1979, the Boyana Church was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a cultural heritage site.

If you are heading into the city from Sofia Central Station by bus or on foot, the area will suddenly become lively once you cross this bridge. You will then feel like you have entered the city of Sofia.
This bridge is decorated with brave lion statues.
