National Palace of Culture (NDK)

It's OK, but it would be so much better if the fountains were actually working - when I visited, there wasn't even any water in the ponds. So all I saw was a large concrete building...big deal. The surrounding park wasn't that special either. Only consisting of a lion statue and a small memorial area with monumental building. Overall, I found it a waste of time and pointless visiting the entire area. I had more joy visiting Glory Hole Donuts (located across the road) and buying a few donuts to take across into the park and using one of the many benches to sit and eat them. One bonus is that there are clean toilets available, but at a fee (1 Lev).

Nice spot for local Christmas market. The decorations towards the Christmas period is absolutely stunning, focussing on eco-friendly stuff. The markets are wide, close to 54 stalls and the pricing is very nominal.

A stunning and imposing building, it is one of the largest multifunctional conference and cultural centers in the world! One of the must see landmarks of Sofia that you shouldn’t miss out on!

A special place for a special occasion. We arrived, and it appeared to be chaotic, but once inside, it was simple to find our way to our alloted seats ... the seat number is on the seat back if you don't see it ;) We didn't attempt to get refreshment, either at the start or at the interval, so can't really comment, but that too looked to be a bit chaotic and not in the least bit clear where the 'bar' was. We had a great time because of the show, which was extremely well presented, and a delight. The palace is spectacular from outside, most particularly in the dark.

It is a very well organized music hall and every spectator has its own number of seats. The sound is very clear and massive. We went to Nikos oikonomopoulos live concert and we had a really great time.

Love this place. Day and night it's full with people(locals and tourists). The fountains are super nice and light up at dark. You can find people doing tricks, spinning fire, playing music, etc. great place.

Huge open space with large tiered fountains that are fun to sit by, large park areas to stroll or sit and relax in the shade, a small outdoor market in one corner of the park. One of Sofia's prettiest parks.

Beautiful well manicured Park with cultural centre and fountains. Very busy when we visited on a Saturday but there was adequate seating and it felt very safe. Close to Metro stop. We stopped there for a picnic and although it was very busy it had a decent vibe.
