Travelling to Sofia 'a wise option'

People travelling to stay in property in Bulgaria should consider Sofia, an industry specialist states.

According to the UK Net guide, the capital city has been steadily increasing in popularity as flights to Sofia airport become more frequent.

Airlines such as British Airways and Bulgaria Air make frequent daily trips to the city, which means travel prices stay relatively low, the website states.

People travelling from the UK to stay in property in Bulgaria can depart from cities including Belfast, Birmingham and Newcastle, providing "easy links" with Sofia, the guide adds.

When investors arrive in the city, they can experience its "fascinating" aspects, such as the UNESCO heritage site Boyana Church and the grand Alexander Nevsky Cathedral.

Boutique shops, pubs and restaurants also line the city's streets, providing something for all tastes, the site concludes.

In other news, a spokesman for the Association of Independent Tour Operators recently claimed the popularity of property in Bulgaria will remain strong, as areas on the continent are a "default destination" for many people.
