Our private English speaking driver guide will meet clients at their Belgrade Hotel at 09.00AM. We will start our journey by leaving Belgrade to drive south, through the eastern part of Serbia.
Gamzigrad, our first stop today, was built by the Roman emperor Maximilianus Galerius - Diocletian’s son in law, who named it after his mother Romula, at the end of III century AD. We will witness once wealthy palaces and villas, beautiful mosaics, many churches and squares. There is a theory that this once was a very important town and residence of the emperor. Close by we will discover an underworld of coral-like stones, jewels, and snow white crystals in the biggest and the most attractive cave in Serbia - Resava Cave.
Next on our way is 14th century Monastery Ravanica – built by Tsar Lazar just before the battle of Kosovo where he was killed. His body was taken back here where he was buried. Close by is also the very important monastery Manasija built by Despot Stefan. This monastery played a very important role in the cultural life of Serbia, as it contained the biggest school at the time. The church itself is in the center, surrounded by strong fortified wall and towers, all from 15th century.
In the evening we will return to Belgrade. |
