Transit

Bulgaria's transit is anchored by Sofia, whose modern, expanding metro is complemented by extensive trams, trolleybuses and buses, all cheap and effective. Other cities rely on trams and buses. Intercity travel uses the BDŽ railway and frequent coaches, affordable if slow. Sofia and historic centres like Plovdiv are compact and highly walkable.
