The Bigar Waterfall (srb. Vodopad Bigar) is considered to be one of the hidden gems of Eastern Serbia. It is situated right along the regional road between Pirot and Knjaževac, thus it is quite easy to find it and visit it. The waterfall is simply mesmerizing and unique in its beauty. Only until recent years has it been discovered by tourists and regularly visited, but, the important fact is that it hasn't been polluted or ruined. That is why you should definitely visit the Bigar Waterfall and enjoy it and the rest of the magnificent Stara planina mountain range!

A 10 minute drive southwest of the concentration camp is Bubanj. The resistance of the prisoners at the concentration camp led to the Germans beginning executions at Bubanj. Women and children were taken to Belgrade and killed in gas chambers. Jewish men and boys over 14 were shot here. Truck loads of prisoners would be taken at a time. This location was fenced in with barbed wire and surrounded by German guards. The prisoners would dig their own graves and then be shot from 10 meters away. This monument serves as a reminder of the Serbian people's courage and defiance toward their enemies. Here, during the mass executions, an unknown prisoner raised his fist in the air in front of the shooters. This incident inspired the monuments that are here today. The verses of Nis poet Ian Vuckovic are carved on the side of the frieze monument in Bubanj: "We were shot but never killed, and never subdued. We crushed the darkness and paved a way for the sun."
