Overview of the tour in Sofia

You will start your tour with a visit of Boyana Church – UNESCO site, located on the outskirts of Sofia. It was added to the World Cultural Heritage List in 1979. The building consists of three parts, which are example of the Byzantine architecture – Greek cross ground-plan with dome, richly decorated facades with ceramic elements. In the interior of the church there are several layers of wall paintings from different historical periods-11th, 13th, 15-17th and 19th. The church owes its world fame mainly to its frescoes from 1259, which reflect the unique achievements of the Bulgarian medieval culture. According to the experts the style of the paintings from this period is much resembling the Renaissance style though much earlier than it begun. The Boyana Church displays 89 different scenes with 240 human figures either individually or together.

Afterwards you will head toward Poganovo Monastery in Serbia. The Monastery of Poganovo with its Church dedicated to Saint John the Theologian was built in the last decade of the 14th century, most possibly by the mighty Serbian nobleman, Master Konstantin Dejanovich Dragash, the nephew of King Dusan and one of the last Serbian rulers befor
