Walking around the museum once is equivalent to reading for a lifetime.

A visit to the National Museum of History, Sofia, is a journey through Bulgarian history, from the first stone to the final grand hall. 🌿 The Courtyard – Filled with Greco-Roman fragments and Thracian traces, each piece whispers a story from living buildings, shrines, and tombs, similar to Thailand's Ban Chiang, where pottery and bronze bracelets tell stories of beliefs about the afterlife. 🛡️ The Warrior's Room – Rusted bronze helmets and ancient shields are evidence of a struggle not just for territory, but also for honor and faith. Thailand itself used both war and religion side by side during the Dvaravati-Lopburi period. ✝️ The Faith Room – 700-year-old frescoes depicting the Virgin Mary and faded crosses embody the spirit of the Middle Ages, a world forever remembered. Meanwhile, Sukhothai began to create exquisite Buddha images and murals. ⚔️ The Oppression Room – Weapons, antique pistols, and silver-plated manuscripts tell of five centuries of Ottoman rule, but faith remains bright. Like Ayutthaya, which was invaded by the Burmese but always rose again. 👑 The Resurrection Room – Paintings and artifacts from revolutionaries and new dynasties. It suggests that Bulgaria is reclaiming its position, similar to the Rattanakosin period during the reign of King Rama V, which underwent reforms to preserve its independence. 🌌 The Great Hall – A circular chandelier radiates like the universe. Outside, the still Vitosha Mountains reaffirm the nation's commitment to the past. ✨ This is not just a Bulgarian museum, but a "mirror reflecting the parallel paths of humanity," allowing us to revisit Thailand's past with new eyes. #tripbestfreeaccommodation #Bulgaria #Sofia #NationalMuseumofHistory #Museum #MuseumTrip #BulgariaTravel #WorldHistory
