One of the most beautiful churches with very nice facade decorations, but with damaged inside paintings. Once they had great red wine from their own vineyard but not anymore.

In the very heart of Serbia, on the hill surrounded by forest which is actually a huge nature park, there is the Church on the top with Mausoleum inside with exceptional frescoes next to the underground part intended for the tombs of the Serbian Krađorđević dynasty and their descendants. Right across the Church standing house of King Peter with paintings, documents and personal stuff exhibition worth to visit as well with vineyards close to the Church. Whole hill and the town of Topola are just wonderful, real rich vineyard area with a small streets and chestnut, walnut trees placed all around the place...

Uvac Special Nature Reserve is a natural place located near Novi Pazar, in Western Serbia. Really, it is a wonderful place, and there are two lookouts, from where you can see great views of the Uvac River and their meanders: a fantastic place. Also, it is possible to walk around the lookouts and see different views of the river. We came here in October-2019, when the river does not have too much water, so it was not the most beautiful views of the river, but there were wonderful! In spring or summer should be marvelous!

Manasija Monastery is one if the most important orthodox monasteries located in the center of Serbia. In fact, it is located in the middle of the land and it is the typical walled monastery constructed in Serbia. The monastery is small and surrounded it, there are some important buildings for the religious community. In the Middle Ages, it was necessary to defend the building from Ottoman Army, so it is walled. Wonderful place and a very good experience to begin the trip in October-2019.

One of the best view! It is worth a visit. If you don't like to climb you drive all the way to the parking and then climb a bit. The climb is short and mild. The drive there is ok. Dirt road but fairly good. Once you reach the main view point, climb a bit further. It is worth it!

An open-air museum "Staro selo" (the Old Village) in Sirogojno portrays the traditional village architecture of the Zlatibor region. All facilities and household objects are authentic. In the museum workshops copies of museum exhibits are manufactured and also, the skill of potters, carpenters and other artisans is manifested.

Sirogojno, on Mount Zlatibor, Serbia is a quaint open-air museum, like an ethno village. We visited in December so it was covered in snow. There is a little restaurant serving pies and strong hot coffee. Worth a visit. You can also find food preserves and there are a few stalls selling a range of sheep wool garments.

Golubac Fortress was renovated in 2019. It looks really beautiful. There are a lot of parking spaces. The visits are nicely organized. It is really well maintained and clean. The fortress is divided into areas and you should decide which one you want to visit when buying a ticket. Some parts are only available on weekdays, some are too steep so you can visit them with a local guide and special equipment, for smaller steep parts a visit is possible for adults with sneakers. There is also a standard section for visiting which is accessible to the elderly and children. Within this section you will be able to find exhibitions that are interesting. When I visited, there were two exhibitions, dedicated to Miroslav's Gospel and Maglič Castle. Video presentations are available, as well as free local guide presentations. There are many things to see, read and learn. We spent a few hours there. I will attach some pictures of all that.
10. Memorial Park Sumarice

Memorial Park Sumarice is a place in the town called Kragujevac, in Central Serbia, where you can remember the mass murder of Serbians by nazi army. Really, it is an emotive park, where there are a lot of sculptures to remember people, who live here during 2nd World War Period and fight against the occupation forces. It is a place to walk, relax and remember the past. Also, in the central part of the park, there is the October 21st Memorial (a horrible day, when the mass murder was done in the town), where you can learn about the 20th Century History. In fact, a lot of explanations are only in Serbian language, but the staff was very friendly with us and he helped us and explain us a lot of things about the museum. Very interesting. Very emotive place.
