Vitosha Boulevard, widely known as Vitoshka, is defined by the sight of the two-thousand-two-hundred-ninety-meter Vitosha Mountain rising directly ahead as you move south toward the National Palace of Culture. Stretching two kilometers through the center of Sofia, this pedestrian thoroughfare connects the seventeenth-century St. Nedelya Church to the city’s green spaces.
