Sofia is the biggest and probably nicest city in Bulgaria. The airport is open all year round, which is not usual in Bulgaria. There are many interesting buildings, markets and museums. It is well laid out and has many open park spaces. Your currency will go a long way here, but be prepared to see the other side of a country trying to pull out of a poor economy. In rural areas 90% unemployment is not uncommon, and many live in grinding poverty, but without doubt the people are the most friendly and welcoming I have ever met. With recent membership of the EU, hopes are high for an improved economy, which has never really properly recovered from soviet mismanagement.
Take a look at the website picturesofbulgaria.com. There are lots of photos of Sofia there.
I saved for years to buy a modest holiday retreat in Bulgaria, and go there at every opportunity.
