The central part of Bulgaria’s capital Sofia has turned into a "wild jungle" with jazz music, festive lights and rare animal species. The special Christmas decoration of one of the most authentic urban places in the capital city "The Small Five Corners", located not far from Graf Ignatiev street, looks impressive and different and is dedicated to the idea of preserving biodiversity and protecting habitats of endangered animal species.
A tiger, a lemur, a cockatoo and an elephant are just some of the unusual neighbours that can be seen on the balconies and the windows. A small sign which reads "See Me at the Zoo" reminds visitors that they can see all these animals at the Sofia Zoo. Addax, python, lar (white handed) gibbon, African lion, Bactrian camel, snow leopard, pygmy hippopotamus, Chinese water dragon and an elephant couple are some of the 30 odd rare species kept in the Sofia Zoo. In the remaining days before Christmas, the extraordinary corner will offer urban entertainment including a farmer's market, zoo stories, music and Christmas delicacies. The festive decorations will adorn "The Small Five Corners" until mid-January.
