If you are in Bulgaria, make sure you take a trip down to the Rila Mountains to visit the Monastery. You can go there on a day trip from Sofia, or stay overnight in the monastery itself which is quite inexpensive. The Monastery is fantastic, as are the surrounding mountains. If you have more time, consider spending a couple of days hiking in the mountains.
