Sofia’s own Roman amphitheatre wasn’t discovered until 2004. In its day it was one of the largest in the Roman empire, holding gladiator fights and grisly battles pitting men against wild beasts. What’s also interesting about this arena is the way it had three lives: First it was a theatre, then an amphitheatre that was sacked by the Goths. In the 400s the arena was rebuilt but was abandoned not long after. After it was unearthed it became integrated into the design of the Arena di Serdica hotel, but visitors off the street are free to look down at the ruins from the hotel’s specially-designed gallery.

Recently opened, the place offers an view of the ancient Serdica (the medieval name of Sofia) fortress. It was discovered just 15 years ago while Serdica Hotel was built.
