  Definitely worth a look. In the middle of Government buildings, but just walk through to the inner courtyard where the oldest church in Sofia is situated.

  A tiny ancient church surrounded by government buildings. The church and ruins outside are worth a visit.

  “St. George” Rotunda Church is the oldest architectural monument in Sofia and the only building in good repair, intact to the roof, dated as far back as the Roman Empire. Its construction coincides with a moment of a remarkable flourishing of Serdika as one of the largest and most considerable Roman towns on the Balkan Peninsula.

  Very cool because of the history. Though they say it's from the 4th century, really it's just the roof that is, but still pretty impressive!!

  A fantastic reminder of the Christian faith extending to the present from the time of Constantine. Beautiful, inspiring, faith building. Unfortunately they try to sell souvenirs in the church. Apparently they have not heard that Jesus threw the profiteers out of the temple.

  Free to visit, check out this 1st century church which is also the oldest church that is still in service.
  No photography allowed so be sure to check it out for yourself. Amazing that this structure is maintained throughout the centuries!!

  It's fascinating and beautiful to look upon something that has been present for so many epic periods of Western and near Eastern civilization.
