We walked up to the Monastery from Orsova (a nice 45 minute hike up the road from the center). The Monastery is well cared for and had amazing flowers everywhere. It is worth a visit. We didn't stay long but wandered around a little enjoying the views and the flowers.

Me and my travel companion were in Orsova for one night and visited this part of the Danube river, which certainly breathes a specific atmosphere. Our journey included a car drive through Eselnita and a visit to the monument of Decebal, close to Dubova. It's a beautiful part of the Danube, with high cliffs on the Serbian side of the river. Most lively period of the year here is definitely summertime; now when spring just had started (early April) it can be quite cold and the sun comes out less frequently. This part of the river including is definitely worth a visit at any time of your if you're in the area.

If you arrive in Dubova you need to take a boat trip which will take you to this cave. Is a very nice guided tour filled with history. The cave has a natural structure and you can see also bats, that are very friendly.
