Manastirski Livadi

Manastirski Livadi is a neighborhood in the south of Sofia, close to Vitosha. It lies on both sides of Bulgaria Blvd., north of the Ring Road. It is bounded by Bratya Buxton Blvd. to the west, Todor Kableshkov St. to the north, the Krastova Vada neighborhood to the east, and the Ring Road to the south.

The name ("Monastery Meadows") comes from the meadows that once belonged to the Dragalevtsi Monastery. Today they have been replaced by modern residential complexes. The neighborhood has two parts - the western part (west of Bulgaria Blvd.), which belongs to the Vitosha district, and the eastern part, which belongs to the Triaditsa district. Active new construction continues in both.

Bulgaria Mall, opened in 2012, is in the western part. The neighborhood is also home to St. Sofia Hospital and the bTV building, with schools and kindergartens nearby. It is served by tram, trolleybus and bus lines, and the center is about 15 minutes away by car along Bulgaria Blvd.

The neighborhood's main drawback is the lack of a large park - because of rapid development there is little green space. Prices are lower than in Lozenets and Krastova Vada.
