If you walk from the University down the street (moving east to west) you can see:
The Monument of the Russian Tzar Alexander II (on the left side), referred to as Tsar Osvoboditel, The King Liberator, given this name because his army helped liberate Bulgaria from Ottoman rule in 1878, situated in front of the parliament. The main street of the city of Sofia is named after him. It is also referred to as simply “the tsar (king)”, “the yellow cobbles” or simply “the cobbles” because of the yellow paving-blocks with which the street is paved. They are ceramic and have been imported from Austria. The route, drawn on this map, follows this street;
The building of the Parliament (on the right side);
After the Parliament you can also see all these beautiful buildings, all on the right side of the street - the buildings of the National Academy of Science, on the corner next to the Parliament, after that – the Austrian Embassy, the Italian Embassy, the Military club (the officers’ club), the Russian Church - the Church of St Nicholas the Miracle-Maker, the National Museum of Natural History, the National Art Gallery (located in the former royal palace, formerly the Turkish Konak in Sofia).
The building of the Bulgarian National Bank – on the opposite side of the square in front of the National Art Gallery. Walk into it and see the building from inside.
