Until September 22, Sofia residents and guests of the city can see the exhibition "Wild Sofia", which presents biodiversity in the capital city. The exposition is composed of photographs and drawings of animals and birds, which sometimes unsuspectingly share the urban space with the people of Sofia. The focus is mostly on the animal world, which stays out of the sight and attention of the busy urban people. Included are both known wild animals and those that it is hard to imagine to be living among us.

The unusual exposition is presented in the exhibition hall "Triangular Tower of Serdika", a branch of the Regional Historical Museum - Sofia and is organized by the Facebook platform "Wild Sofia" in compliance with all anti-epidemic measures.
