Central Bus Station Sofia is the country's tightest transport hub, sitting dead central in Sofia and always moving. Every metro line meets here, every tram passes, and the station's underground levels hold Roman ruins excavated beneath the pedestrian crossing — one of the best in-situ archaeological sites in Europe, and free to visit. Above ground, the district is TZUM department store, the former Communist Party House, and a strip of chain hotels and business rentals between Sveta Nedelya Square and Serdika station. People come through the bus station on connections across the country and stay nearby because the location puts them within a short walk of the Largo, Sveta Nedelya Cathedral, Banya Bashi mosque, the Central Mineral Baths and the Rotunda of Sveti Georgi, all layered across two thousand years in a twenty-minute walk. Weekday lunch queues at the Halite market stalls run 12:00 to 14:00, and the underpass beneath the ruins doubles as the busiest foot-traffic corridor in the city. Expect construction noise near the Serdika 2 entrance most mornings.
