Lonely Planet review for National Polytechnic Museum

One of Sofia’s less visited attractions, this small museum is nevertheless a treasure trove for anyone interested in the history of science and technology. On show is a varied (though not always well labelled) collection covering such subjects as photography, radio and time measurement. A gleaming, perfectly restored 1928 Ford Model A is parked just inside, while other displays include atomic clocks, typewriters, early movie cameras and mechanical pianos. Look for the Bulgarian-made freeze-dried ‘space food’, which includes a packet of powdered tarator.
