Erected in 2000, this is another symbol of Sofia, still sparking arguments because it was designed to represent the saint but actually features many attributes of the ancient goddess Sophia (the goddess of wisdom). Fun fact: in its place used to be a statue of Lenin.

If you want to escape the pace of the city you can go to Mount Vitosha, whose peak is visible from multiple spots in the city. Here you can enjoy a hike through the forested slopes or rocky peaks, and even go rock climbing if active pursuits are a thing for you.
