City Information

The Bulgarian capital of Sofia lies in the Sofia Valley at the foot of Vitosha mountain. Known for its vast history stretching over seven millennia, Sofia is one of Europe's oldest cities, making for a metropolis where long-standing traditions meet modern entertainment.
Sofia's most iconic and popular tourist destination is the St. Alexander Nevski Cathedral. Completed in 1912 and built as a memorial to the 200,000 Russian soldiers who died in the Russo-Turkish Liberation War, the cathedral's crypt is open to visitors and has a vast collection of religious icons.
Because of Sofia's fascinatingly long history, it is no surprise that the city is filled with various historic sites and era-defining buildings. The Rotunda Church of St. George is one such place and is said to be the oldest building in Sofia. This ruin dates back to the 4th century, and the fact alone that it has remained mostly unscathed since then is reason enough to visit.
Sofia has also developed a vibrant contemporary scene, with many festivals and events taking place annually, including the internationally prominent Sofia Independent Film Festival and the GuitArt Festival.
Sofia can be easily reached by air via its conveniently located international airport, as well as by rail from various cities in nearby countries, including Istanbul, Belgrade and Bucharest. Various international and national coach services also offer daily transportation to the city. The vast majority of them operate out of the Sofia Central Bus Station.
Homburg
Homburg is a town in the German state of Saarland, close to the country's border with France. Homburg offers travellers a unique attraction in the Schlossberghöhlen, an underground complex of 17th-century sand mines. Visitors can take a guided tour of the tunnels and caves to learn about the site's long history: from 250-million-year-old footprints in the red sandstone to the mines' use as air-raid shelters in World War II. After your trip underground, get some fresh air on a hike to Karlsberg Castle. The castle lies mostly in ruin now, but the forest trails in the area are regal in their own right.
For younger travellers in your group, Homburg has a few exciting kid-friendly activities too. Gulliver-Welt is a park just outside of town with miniatures of world-famous buildings and a playground to enjoy. Fun Forest AbenteuerPark Homburg is perfect for older kids who embrace a little adrenaline. Ziplines, rope courses, and a scenic lake ensure a memorable adventure for the family.
Several forms of transportation make it easy to reach Homburg and discover all of its hidden gems. FlixBus and Sindbad offer affordable coach service from bigger cities like Frankfurt, Munich, and Lyon. Coaches arrive at Homburg's Central Train Station, along with Deutsche Bahn trains that connect to destinations throughout Europe.
