Went there June 2019 with a 22 year-old and 3.5 year-old. The little one didn't get much of it, but had lots of fun, especially in the baby area. The big one loved it! Muzeiko is an amazing kids' science museum that not many countries in Europe have! Many different areas with different science fields, enough opportunity to play while exploring and learning. Also the food in the canteen was quite good especially for a museum. Love love love it! Would come back any time again!

When I entered the gallery, I felt like Alice in the Wonderland! It a magical experience - on every step I made, there was a unique piece of art, discovering so many different and original handmade products designed by local artists. I admire the fact that the gallery supports local artists giving them the possibility to exhibit their creation in such a cosy and inspiring space. I have also visited the gallery during a workshop - the best occasion to meet like-minded people.

By entering the flat, you will visit the home of an average family and discover what everyday life was like for ordinary Bulgarians during the Cold War.
