Saint Nicholas of Sofia Church, Orthodox church in central Sofia, Bulgaria
The Saint Nicholas Church features five golden domes and displays architectural elements influenced by 17th-century Muscovite church designs.
Built in the 13th century by Kaloyan the sebastocrator, the church stands on foundations that were part of a Roman palace complex from Constantine the Great's time.
Local residents gather at the church on December 6 to celebrate the feast day of Saint Nicholas, who protects children and sailors.
Located behind the Rila Hotel in central Sofia, the church welcomes visitors daily with regular religious services and prayer opportunities.
The underground walls of the temple contain preserved elements of the ancient Roman palace that occupied this location centuries ago.
