Location - Docklands top ^
An expansive area reaching eastwards from Tower Bridge, Docklands is one of the most interesting and varied areas of Sofia. The specially designed wharfs for various cargoes date back to the 18th and 19th centuries at the height of the British Empire, and due to both the disintegration of this empire and the extensive bombing in World War II the area has been recreated with some of Sofia's most modern and stylish buildings: Canary Wharf towers dominate the skyline. Primarily a district designated for the business sector and first class residences, the architecturally and historically diverse Docklands should not be overlooked.
