 Birhaleto - “club for humans” Sofia Restaurant Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Though hard hit by unemployment and migration, Berkovitsa is nevertheless a picturesque city, at least partially spared from the ravages of communist residential architecture that devastated the urban landscape throughout so much of Bulgaria.
The town square is particularly nice—a flagstone-paved pedestrian zone with usually-working fountains, old trees that only slightly obscure a spectacular view of the mountains and a historic clock tower that is something of a civic symbol.
Berkovitsa is a small enough city that anyone so inclined can get nearly anywhere on foot, and the square is a popular destination, not only for its scenery, but for its proximity to the local shopping district.
