It has a Bohemian quarter called "The Trap"

Kapana district is located between the Taksim and Nebet hills, northeast of Dzhumaya square. Its name translates to "The Trap" in Bulgarian, which is precisely what you will encounter. Not simply because of the narrow meandering alleyways that begin and terminate in unexpected places, intersect and join in a veritable cobblestone labyrinth. It's more about the ambience of this city, which has artisan stores, art galleries, pubs, restaurants, and street art on every corner. True magnetism draws you in, and once it has your attention with flags hung between the homes, a random picture on a wall, or a coffee shop with cushions put out on window frames outside, it won't let you go...At least not until dusk descends on the neighborhood, transforming it into a tangle of lights, shadows, and nightlife noises.

In recent years, the government has pushed property owners to rehabilitate the deteriorating structures, and the neighborhood is now a maze of hipster cafés, flower shops, and jazz bars. There's no need to seek any farther for a world-class espresso, artisan beer, or beard. Many of the city's musicians and artists congregate at Kapana in the evenings, mixing with students and young professionals. Rickety chairs spill out onto the cobblestone alleyways, and smokey wine taverns are packed with affluent patrons
