The Tsar Osvoboditel (Tsar Liberator)Monument
by matza
The Tsar Osvoboditel monument by the renowned Italian Sculpture Arnoldo Zocci, is one of the most beautiful in Sofia. Situated on the square in front of the parliament building, it is an expression of thanks from the Bulgarian nation to its Russian liberators. The 14 meters high monument portrays the Russian Tsar Alexander II, astride his horse, holding the declaration of the War of Liberation. The upper part of the pedestal is a relief composition underneath which small bronze bas-relief illustrate important events from the war.

If you love playing chess...
by Niablue
If you love playing chess there is something you can’t miss although this is not a typical tourist attraction. In front of the National Theater there is a beautiful green park with fountains next to which every day lots of people who like playing table or chess gather there for a symbolic tournament. There is always a crowd of people who sit in silence and watch them for hours and if you get too strenuous or tired of the game or too hot during the summer you can always cool yourself down in the fresh waters of the fountains:0)))))).
Club Saray
by hekate about Club Saray
The name already suggests that this place is targeted to a specific group of people who fancy Oriental type of music. You can see that on the pictures as well :) So, in terms of music you should expect the following styles: Ethno, Turkish, Arabian, Greek, Indian and some popular dance hits. If you are not in to it you'd better not going there.
This is a relatively new club. It opend in December 2005. The interior is reflecting the name of the place and has some kind of Orintal flavour :) If you are interested, you can try out water pipe.
As a whole the service is good except for when the place is packed, then the service tends to be a bit slowlier. Also, if there are many people sometimes gets a bit too smokie. Prices are reasonable. As far as I remember there is no entrance fee.
Saray Club has theme parties for some of the week days. For example Tuesdays are usually set aside for Greek party, Wednesdays for Retro parties, Saturdays might offer you belly dancing show :)
