National Archaeological Institute with Museum
Sofia, Bulgaria
Exhibits from the Bronze Age to the Middle Ages lie under the eight domes of the former mosque, so the 15th-century building itself serves as a display case.
The museum is housed in a former Buyuk Mosque in the very centre. You will see collections from the Thracian, Roman and medieval periods, and the building itself is part of the attraction. Good for people who love antiquity and a calm visit, without large crowds.
