Actually, that's where the shortcomings end. First of all, I was pleased local kitchen. Delicious dishes can be found in absolutely any restaurant, cafe or bar. Mountain settlements and villages, filled with special flavor, deserve special attention. Serbia will delight you with beautiful nature and clean air, and due to the similarity of languages with local residents communication is quite easy.
Marta: Serbia for me is an amazing and unique country with a unique flavor and temperament. I settled in the small settlement of Bela Crkva, famous for its lakes. In August the weather was hot and sunny, we spent time on the city beach. The embankments of the beautiful lakes are dotted with bars and picnic areas. I was especially pleased with the local cuisine. Local cheeses meat dishes, pastries and sweets will be a pleasant addition to your vacation. Most of all I liked Belgrade, where I visited the theater and colorful restaurants.
