Russian Cultural Centre

Sofia, Bulgaria

About

This interesting place is right in the heart of the city on Shipka Str address no 34 it's just across the street to 2 of my favorite restaurants The Witches and O'Shipka. As you go in the big glass fronted building there is a life sized model of the Vostok-3 capsule which was used by Yuri Gagarin on that famous day back on April 12th 1961, I remember reading about it back in my school days in England. This is just one of the many things on display in the Russian Cultural Centre, I found the place very interesting as I am very interested in Russian culture. The centre is open during the week from 09:00 - 17:00 it is not open weekends which I found very strange but there you go.
