Balkans - Ep 13 - Rila Monastery
Today was a free day in Sofia, Bulgaria but I decided to join an optional tour in the morning. It was to visit Rila Monastery in the Bulgarian mountains and we met in the lobby at 08:30am. We were picked up by the same coach we had travelled several thousand kilometres on to this point.
The drive to the monastery took around 2 hours and we were given a small guided tour when we got there, visiting some of the upstairs rooms that not everyone gets to see. We spent a couple of hours here and had an early lunch before heading back to Sofia. We hit some traffic on the way back returning to the hotel just after 14:30pm. The rest of the afternoon was free but I chose to rest in the hotel room.
