Since the entire city centre was a military camp with lines of police standing shoulder to shoulder and linking arms on every street I was a big target walking around with a camera so I wanted to get out of the way.When I saw the Turkish baths (which I didn't know they had one in Sofia) it was actually the archaeological museum so I went in to get away from all the policeLater I read this wasn't the baths but actually the Grand Mosque. Entrance was 8 Lev ($5.50) ...

My hotel was easy to find close to the bus station. My worries about them trying to double charge me for the room which they already billed to my credit card were fine as they knew it was already paid for.They had a pictorial map and there was a nice church nearby that we had passed from the bus.
