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...

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!
6. Stari Ras and Sopocani

As you can read about Sopocani, this place is work of art and posses really good preserved frescoes. You can also imagine fortress around monastery which brings you back to medieval period. We were visiting during "covid19 crisis" so it was really quiet and peaceful. They also built in front of monastery place to refresh, with few tables and chairs, water and tea, where you can sit and rest for a bit. Definitly worth visiting

8. Stari Grad (Old Town)

Reviewed By adamcech - Prague, Czech Republic
Possible to access from the city centre in about 7 minutes for some 500 dinars. The castle is directly overlooking the city and is one of the best sightseeing point. In the evening when we have visited it was totally empty. The ruins are well maintained, there are stairs and railings to prevent you from accidentally falling, and on the top a new terace, that is well suited for picknick or dancing ball. Highly recomended

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.
