Inhalt:
Sofia is one of the oldest cities in Europe, and it remains a relatively undiscovered melting pot of Eastern and Western cultures. Its urban fabric comprises a vast range of architectures, with structures by the ancient Thracians, the Romans, Byzantines, as well as works from the Bulgarian medieval era, the Ottoman Empire, and the modern day, including the peculiar period of communist historicism and modernism. This book presents the city and its capacity to produce a singular architectural experience by tracing its geography and dissecting its historical layers. The Bulgarian capital is not defined by any pure styles; it re-mixes various influences to create a unique amalgamation. Architectural Guide Sofia catalogues not only monuments and sites overlooked by standard tourist guides, but also the city's most recent buildings, highlighting innovative works by contemporary architects. It profiles 200 selected structures from different eras, explores the genesis of the local architectures, and analyses the architectural details born out of clashes of various stylistic influences. More than 15 maps and 700 illustrations, coupled with an extensive bibliography, will help readers and travellers experience the extraordinary diversity of Sofia's built environment.
