Slatina is Sofia's eastern district — the Geo Milev, Reduta, Yavorov, Hristo Smirnenski and Hristo Botev quarters between the centre and the airport. The Festivalna and Universiada sports halls, parks, and the upcoming metro line 6 set to transform the district's transport.
Slatina district occupies eastern Sofia between the centre and the airport — around 67,000 residents on 13 sq. km. Reduta is the highest-lying neighbourhood in the capital, and the village of Slatina itself was first mentioned in 1420.
Geo Milev is the district's heart — an established quarter with broad boulevards and busy trade; Yavorov and Reduta border Borisova Gradina and the centre; Hristo Smirnenski and Hristo Botev complete the residential belt. The district holds the Festivalna and Universiada sports halls, the State Music Academy and several embassies.
Trams, trolleybuses and buses along Tsarigradsko Shose and Shipchenski Prohod carry the traffic, and Sofia Airport is minutes away. The M6 metro branch, with stations through Geo Milev and Slatina, is under construction (expected around 2027) — an investment already lifting interest in the district. The market offers panel-era and new apartments with steady demand from families and investors.
