The Vitosha Boulevard, Sofia, was initially made as a residential street, but it took the shape of a trade street during the interwar years. Several public buildings were constructed, which were later used as shops and offices. Currently, this area in Sofia has been rated as the 22nd most expensive trade street in the world.
The Government of Bulgaria has taken several steps in renovating the Vitosha Boulevard, Bulgaria. Plantation of trees and plants has been planned.
